Basically there's not much to go wrong. *IF* a keg is good the PE will do a fine job of keeping the CO2 out and the water in. If it was in the sun for most of the time I'd doubt the quality because of aging HDPE (mostly used for packaging) but if it had been stored indoors (out of the sun and other extremes such as freezing temperatures) I'd most happily dive it.

Remember it's a very *simple* stable chemical substance. I'm carefull with cells and other stuff that may deteriorate over time but this is nothing like that... *I* would use it without much further doubt.
