How would you know when it's done its job? just the noise levels?
If I have a build where the protection diodes are not replaceable separately from the fet they are protecting, what specifications of the diodes should I consider for robustness?

All P-N junctions become noisy under circumstances, particularly when they're driven in their Zener region.
I would say that a diode that has done its job of protecting a low-noise circuit should be replaced one day or another.
