It depends, if you are obese, the Surgeon and the type of procedure, but 4-8 hours.
There are several pancreas surgeries, so the best way to specifically answer your question is to ask the surgeon who is proposing the surgery.
That depends on what type of surgery you’re having. Some pancreatic surgery can be very quick such as biopsies. Any surgery involving removing a portion of the pancreas will take considerably more time. These will usually take several hours.
A long time.
