If you take good care of them, like classic car owners, they could last for decades. But you should be EXTREMELY dedicated to keeping the engine running. Replacing it would cost a lot but then again so would maintaining the old one. Still, all you have to do is make sure the engine is properly maintained.

What is the longest lasting engine?

If you are talking about internal combustion engines I would imagine the Wankle or "rotary" engine, as it has the fewest number of moving parts and keeps a consistent direction of movement. However all engines rely on the maintenance they receive and the work load/conditions they endure. I have heard of some steam engines that operated for 70 some odd years continually in factories, and electric motors I could see running for as long as they were supplied power.
