The goal is to keep the heatsink temparatures around 55c.
That will keep the inside case temp in 45-50 range.
The caps are rated @ 3000hrs @85C.
This should easily give us 5000-6000 hrs.So with a optimistic 4 hr listening Evey day this gives us 4 years.That's enough for me
would these caps work with the pass 5 build.

I think I read in one of the threads in DIYA that the PS cap's voltage rating should be atleast twice the rated voltage of the PS. In this case that would mean 2X24V at the minimum. If it was me I'd look at atleast 63V. I could be wrong on this though...
Not nessacary. 50% of voltage safety is enough. I feel 40V caps for 24 V secondaries is good.
Even teh F5T V2 which has 32 volt secondaries we are all pinning in 50V caps.
