Interferance engine or non interferance?

Hey guys I just have a quick question. I bought a 92 Honda civic about a month ago. One thing im not sure of is if the timing belt was changed in a while.
It has 220,000km. I figure it had to be done atleast once. Im wondering to know if I should do the belt asap or just wait for the old one to break.. If I wait for the old one to break do I have to reset the timing and is it hard?
The engine is the 1.5L

Yeah wait for the old one to break so you have to buy a new motor.
