Just a couple of lists I put together for some discussion on Discord earlier, thought it might interest someone.
Top 11 oldest races by maximum possible age:
Witchwyrd 600+10d% years
Telia 950+4d% years
Shakalta 500+5d% years
Barathu/Khizar 500+3d% years / Gray 400+4d% years

Varculak 350+3d% years
Contemplative 300+3d% years

Dwarf 250+2d% years
Ghoran 200+1d% years / Reptoid/Entu colony/Borai 200+5d20 years
Shatori, from Alien Archive 3 don't have a Maximum Age - I guess none of them has died of old age yet?
SRO, from Pact Worlds, have a "See page 213" note on their Maximum Age, but there's no explanation in said page (their entry). I suspect they might be immortal.

Formian 15+1d10 years
Entu symbiote/Hanakan/Copaxi 30 + 1d20 years

From the core rulebook
The maximum age listed includes
an element of randomness to reflect the capriciousness of death,
and it is the assumption for the race’s longevity without magical
or technological intervention—with the right life-extension
technology, individuals of all races can become nearly immortal
Despite being a ysoki, Mom norveg makes a lot of references to having lived through "the 60's" and that decade always gets a little garbled. She's not sure if its the 260s the 160's or just the 060's..."
She also calls Lao Shu Po "Ma rat" instead of Grandma rat so.. who knows.
