Think it's at 50k but some around your age strangely are 60k. Best check your service booklet.

For the Bugeye, the cambelt change is due at the 50,000 mile service.

Len at subaru4you (a highly respected Subaru specialist) reckoned cambelt should be changed at 50,000 miles on a new age - in agreement with local franchise dealer.

Subaru owners manual also states 50,000 miles (60,000 for non-turbo).

Well whatever, I'm glad I had it done, even if I didn't need to.
