Jetstream 32 power concerns

Have been positioning around the Caribbean on an old J32 recently,and on my last trip,both sectors,we noticed the following,in climb and cruise:
Left engine torque,73..temp,600c...Right engine torque,63..temp 645c(5 degrees off yellow arc.)
The right engine was definitely being nursed to keep just out of yellow arc.
Question,common occurrence..or subject to imminent failure?
Regards,
A concerned YS!
Update..having done some research,maybe running these engines just out of EGT limits is standard practice..you tell me...
