That being said, Elven immortality seems to just be something granted them by the Ainur (the half-elves and half-humans being examples), so while hard to actually say, it seems (as far as I'm concerned) unlikely that orcs indeed are immortal - long lived, yes, but over time that would lessen, one would imagine, due to outside genetic influences.
