Engine Replacement?

1. A few early models needed an engine replacement (mine has a new one)
2. The MAF sensor goes (mine went earlier this year)
3. The cables for the hood break (mine broke earlier this year)
I expereinced almost all typical problem like RMS, MAF, top ...etc. It seems like the next thing gonna happen is engine dead. What is the odd to survive? Any 97/98 Box owners don't need to replace their engine here? Should I get ready for my engine to die? There are 36K miles on my engine, how much life my engine should have? After I read this thread, I felt like my car was diagnosed cancer or something.
