Can anyone tell me if a Corsa 'C' 1.3 CDTI has a timing belt or a chain as I have a rattle on start up which goes after a second or two. The reason I am asking is that the rattle reminds me of an old hydraulic timing chain tensioner.

Should be belt.
Has it had an oil change lately? Using the right grade of oil?
Soulds more like hydraulic tappets to me
 
as neo says its probably the hydraulics pumping up,nothing to worry about if it goes within a few seconds,just make sure you keep up the regular oil changes

had oil changes at the correct times I am using the oil supplied by vauxhall that is the low viscosity long life oil. The expensive one!!
