The chain and sprockets will exhibit advanced wear if the oil change history of the engine is poor.
Use a high quality oil and changed every 7500 miles from new? Chain and sprockets will look like new at 150k. Use cheapo oil and regularly forget to change it? They will be totally trashed at 150k. If you bought the car used and don't have the service history, condition could be anywhere in between.
