Wow, that looks like a small monster! What sort of boat is it in? Welcome to the Forum. I'm afraid I don't know anything about your motor, but someone will come on soon to answer your question(s).

FWIW, knowing what little I do know about MBZ engines, it should last for quite some time if reasonably cared for (oil, filters, etc.).

In 1949, the new OM 300 diesel engine series for commercial vehicles made its debut in the Mercedes-Benz L 3250 truck
