I did tore down a engine for a customer at his place do to a stuck/cracked side seal, at about 42k miles on the build,
Took pics with my phone the condition of the plates, there were only visual signs of the travel of the seals but no measurable step wear on the plates.
I would safely assume that these last close to or the same as new OEM plates...
Will have more back to back info with data etc in the future...

Thanks
