If I understand this, you have an engine with 90k miles that currently runs. If it is showing signs of fluid leakage, replace those gaskets, otherwise you may open a can of worms fiddling with stuff that isn't broken... My wrecking yard guarantees their parts for a while, labor is your dime.

Failure probability is a mix of factors with the long MTBF averaging out the very short early failures. Your stuff could outlive you or be struck by lightening today. That event would be random and definitely unpredictable.
