Car won't start - possible timing chain?

I have a '99 9-3 manual, 150,000 miles. New fuel pump last summer. Was running fine, I parked in a parking garage Friday night, and it wouldn't start when I came out a couple hours later. Cranked, sounded fine, but wouldn't start. Seemed like it wasn't getting gas. I pushed it to garage ramp, tried to jump start on way down, got revs on tach but no start. Thought maybe fuel pump again but others think maybe timing chain. Made a bad noise when last tried to start. Any thoughts? If timing chain, what should I expect to pay? Saab Great Britains in Willow Grove, PA, just suggested $2,500.00 if JUST the chain and no additional problems. A mechanic is going to diagnose tomorrow, and I need to be ready to make a decision on repairs. Please respond ASAP! Thanks, Rick
