well look at it this way you're rebuilding the engine with brand new mechanical parts. might as well insure that all the internals are proper so that later on your not replacing ****, and worst case jumping timing. it happens.

i don't know about how long they should last. but i know this much, when you unseat **** and then re-install it and beat on it a little harder weak parts break first. chains are weak and cheap to replace while the engine is on a stand.
