If a glow plug dies you can reuese the intake manifold gaskets since you should replace them every year when you ream the glow plugs.
I meant that I would take them out once a year just to make sure there is no issue when I have to remove them in the future.

Also when I take them out as planned, I would wire brush the threads and put fresh anti-sieze on it.
