Can anyone tell me if a '97 Corolla engine is an interference motor?

Click on this link and it'll take you to Gates.com, then just plug in your Corolla's information and the results will tell you whether you have an interference engine or not and provide a complete list of parts needed for a timing belt change, etc.

Hmm, I'm not too sure about the 2E. I have a feeling that it's also a non-interference engine, but it might pay to call your local Toyota dealership and ask.

If you're concerned about it, why not change it now, before it snaps and leaves you stranded
