Default JT-interference or not.............

With quite a few years on these forums I once again see the debate on another I5 list as to whether the JT 2.2 is a non interference or a interference motor when the t-belt breaks. Has anyone had a personal experience with damage to the valves when the timing belt broke on a JT motor? It would be nice to put this issue to rest.
