The 2.3 is a non-interference engine... But you should replace your timing belt at 100k miles...

Good catch!
That was one of the first repairs I did...unfortunately, I got stuck 50 miles from home...and because I had no idea it was the belt I started replacing parts that weren't needed...spent about $200 before I realized the belt was broken...
