Thats a cap and a spacer for the tip of the injector. you should be fine just replacing the O-ring as long as the tip looks to be fine.

No reason to replace them unless there is a leak and/or they appear to be dry and cracked.

You should be fine then. Im the type of person to always replace O-rings and things of that nature. They might look to be fine. but they are ~15 years old with alot of mileage. either which way be careful when putting the injectors into the intake. The last thing you want to do is rip an o-ring and not know about it until you start up the car. just a PITA

Not to mention they are cheap as hell to replace, Just change them to be on the safe side! I made this mistake once and sprung a leak on 2 injetors. More of a pain then the couple dollars to spend on o-rings
