At the heart-pounding hanging moment in the film where Indy is reaching for the grail, he stops because his father, for the first time in the entire movie, calls him, "Indy", instead of Junior. Indy just got caught up in the moment of wanting the grail, which he didn't really show desire or faith for before. In "Last Crusade", Indy realized at that moment when his father called him, "Indy", that his own real search in the film was not for the holy grail, but for the relationship he's always wanted with his father. It wouldn't have been worth it for Indy to have kept on striving for the grail just as the Nazis and Elsa did and failed, risking his life and his father's; the grail just revealed each person's own greed. It was right of Indy to see the real treasure he already had, so he didn't act out of character.

Simply put...no. The grail knight does say that the grail itself can NOT pass the great seal...for that is the price of immortality.

They were immortal, for a short time. Elsa took the grail over the seal and returned Indy & Henry back into a mortal state.

So they are NOT immortal.

(Alternatively, it may be that strictly speaking they were never immortal at all. It's possible that in order to remain alive and healthy, it was necessary to drink from the Grail repeatedly -- and since the Grail couldn't pass beyond the Seal, that would have meant visiting the site every now and then. That would explain why the knights who left the cave after drinking from the Grail eventually died of extreme old age. Nothing in the film states that one becomes immortal by drinking from the Grail one time, and that were the case, it would be difficult to explain those knights' deaths.)

1912 and 1938

He stole camels to compensate for the destruction of his brother-in-law's car but they are not with the gang riding into the sunset in the end....
