How long do AC o-rings last?

These are the green o-rings used in automotive AC systems. Do they start to leak after a given time, and where could I obtain new ones? I bought a box of them at an autoparts store, but it didn't have most of the sizes that are needed for my 1994 Taurus.

Go to a dealer to get the right size, our dealer always stocked all the sizes mainly for the service dept.

they're a nitrile rubber, they'll last longer than the regular rubber.
