Is there a different between a timing belt and a timing chain?

Yes. A timing belt is a rubber-toothed belt that drives the camshaft while a timing chain is a metal chain that drives the camshaft.

Can a timing chain wear?

Yes. The chain can get loose and wear the teeth on the cam and crank sprockets.
