Default what timing chain to get? lq4 swapped

putting a lq4 block out of a denali in my car and wondering should i replace the timing chain i figure its probably best to do it so hell why not. what timing chain should i go with tho? just get a stock replacement one or is it still worthy to get a ls2 timing chain or will the lq4 one do just fine? or should i just leave that one in there it has about 100k on the motor.
