New (to me) 2000 Honda Civic EX - what is my engine code?

I just bought a 2000 Honda Civic EX. It is a 4 door. I don't know if the car has had a timing belt changed or not, and I plan on doing one this week as well as a few other things.
I am an Evo guy and I typically don't work on Hondas. Can anyone tell me which "series" engine this has? (The Letter, like "D" or whichever)
I think the car belonged to an old lady. From what I can tell all of the parts are stock =)

Yes- america. So that's a "D" series, thanks.

All of my experiences are Mitsubishi and Mazda related so hopefully working on this car will be easy. Everything seems accessible for the most part.

Yep D16. Easy to work on when you have to and parts are plentiful.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

the engine code is stamped on the block of the engine, open the hood and look closely right underneath the valve cover on the upper left corner your gonna see some numbers on the block.
