Is there anything written on the bar, or any numbers on the chain links?

I could be wrong but I think the 346xp in the US can be sold with a 'narrow kerf' bar and chain.

 

This means the bar is 1.3mm and not the usual 1.5mm and runs a different chain.

 

There should be some numbers stamped on the chain and bar which will give clues!

See if you can ID the chain using info on the bar.

 

You want the pitch (prob .325) guage (prob 1.3mm/.050 or 1.5mm/.058) and the number of drive links to get a new chain.

got old chain box it has measurements on that say .325 .050"/1.3mm. which is slightly diff to what timbercutter says .but would that size be ok.only 0.2mm out but me being a builder same village is normally ok.

1.5 would bind in the bar. Follow Rob's advice and look at the bar for the info.
