Subject:Best way to judge life left in Waterboxer?

The 1.9 engine in my 85 manual Vanagon has 198,000 miles.� Never been opened for any reason.� Runs smooth as silk.� Gentle driving, burns no oil, always passes smog, power seems about the same as always.� Wondering how long this thing can last?� What's the best way to get some idea, compression test?�
