A little more precise answer to the question is that the metal tensioners were introduced on August 13, 2001 at the engine plant. Since the engine serial number encodes the manufacture date of the engine the engine serial number becomes the critical deciding factor. An engine serial number of 010813 (YYMMDD) or above would indicate metal tensioners.
While there is no direct correlation of engine serial number to VIN the previous post is approximately correct.
The engine serial number is on a machined area near the water pump and is effectively impossible to read on an engine in place. A courteous call to your local Jaguar dealer with the VIN will produce the engine serial number.
