Question HELP! 3VZ-FE question

Okay, per my previous thread, I have a couple of quick questions.

I am having my water pump and timing belt changed. What I need to know is in my 1993 ES (3VZ-FE), is it a non-interference engine?

How do you know for sure on my engine if the belt broke?

I am not sure when I parked the car for overheating again if the belt broke or not, it did not die on me.

Yes, it's non-interference.

And... it wouldn't go, or it'd be hanging on the ground?

Thanks BadViper, I can now rest easy that if the timing belt did break, I didn't bend or break any valves.
