People have had failures usually due to slipped fittings... you can possibly break through a hose if you have it laying against something for an extended period. A few people have used professional hydraulic lines to ensure the fittings stay tight. Still failures are few and far between as falcon stated.

Best thing to do is to get an accurate oil pressure gauge so you can hopefully avoid damage in the event something lets loose.
