1. Ron is correct, the C39 will see tens of volts, not even close to a hundred.
2. No matter what the voltahe is, a correctly rated cap will serve you forever, with the notable exception of electrolytics which are destroyed by mostly heating due to ambient temp. plus ripple current times ESR heat losses. Otherwise a modern ceramic or film cap will live very long if not forever.
