How often will you guys clean and/or service the ejector on the bolt?
When it stops ejecting. Just keep it wet, and it should be good until it expires.
ETA: This is my maintenance schedule.

Never. I wipe away any debris I can from the bolt face.. including around the ejector, but other than that... nothing.

The test that I use is if the ejector spring feels "mushy" and is easily pushed down, it's time to replace the spring. And it is the same spring as the safety selector lever as an FYI.

I once heard a wise man say that roll pins are one use items...just food for thought.

No need to take it apart. A blast of brake cleaner in the ejector drain hole followed by some compressed air should clean out any gunk in there. Just remember to reoil afterwards.
