Default Expected life for Ford Lehman diesel engines?

I am currently looking at a Grand Banks 42 ft Trawler. It is equipped with
two Ford Lehman engines. They currently have 4800 hours on each of them.
I have had conflicing information as to engine life. One source says 10,000
hours while another says 5,000 hours.

Does anyone have experence with these engines to give me the warm and
fuzzies of the cold shower of truth?
