Hey guys, well my car has clocked over 100k and i'm in need of a major service. Question is - is the timing belt model specific? I've dun a little search and it seems that way... if so where can i get an OEM timing belt for a B16B?? Or am i completely wrong and can use a B16A one?

to the best of my knowledge, use the B18C timing belt.

The B16B is a destroked B18C block (b16a crank + long rods)

Isn't the b16a and b16b the same block? hence b18c as well.. juts both are destroked?

No they are not the same block. To be more specific there is a 7mm difference.
