Timing Belt Interval on B230FD 900 1995

I have the IPD gold crank holder (bought several years ago) and it works fine.

The 1993-1995 B230 engines use a timing belt that has rounded teeth. The timing pulleys have rounded slots to accommodate the rounded teeth on the belt.

The B230 engines before 1993 use a timing belt that has squared off teeth. The timing pulleys have squared slots to accommodate the squared teeth on the belt.

Perhaps the rounded teeth on the 1993-1995 belts result in longer life ? Replacing every 50K miles still seems like a good idea even on the newer engines.
