Will my Focus have a DPF?

I'm considering buying a Ford Focus 1600 of about 2008/9 vintage. I understand that some of the diesel engines don't have a DPF filter. I presume that they do have a dual mass flywheel. Also do any of the petrol models have a cam chain rather than cam belt?

The earlier TDI 90s did not need a DPF to qualify for EU4. TDI 110s did. If the car is EU5, then it will have a DPF.
