2020 Chevy Duramax 3.0 Diesel
The Chevy 3.0 Duramax has been delayed due to the EPA which is a shame, but not surprising. Also not a fan of the timing chain installed on the rear of the engine. Link

They don't have the manual up on their website yet for the 3.0L Duramax I6, but for the 2.8L I4, the timing belt needs to be changed at 150k miles. I wonder if that is extended for the I6 3.0L because it is in the back?
On Edit - In doing some web searching, it looks like the "timing" is chain driven (on the back of the engine), but the OIL PUMP is belt driven (also on the back of the engine). Maybe there's a way to change it without engine removal?
