Im not sure what you are asking ? but your stock lines are compatible with e85 and are free if you need larger lines i would looking into converting your fuel system to AN specifications doing so you could choose the size of the line you would like -8 -10 or even larger contact one of the vendors on here such as stm motorsports or map performance they all sell an fittings and stainless line that works great with e85.

Any reason why your are looking to replace the fuel lines. There are plenty of Evo's running around with stock fuel lines and 600, 700+.
And you can get regular fuel line. E85 is not a corrosive fuel. OEM lines are fine.

He has a evo 6, so maybe those lines are smaller than the more common 8/9's most people refer too. But you can't go wrong with OEM lines if they are large enough, if not Russel ProClassic seems to be the line of choice. Stainless steel lines I have seen fail after a few years use.

the lines are fine some fuel pump seals are damaged by it injector seals there was a tread a while back when it first came out about a shop put it in a car that wasnt flexfuled and the shop had to replace all fuel elements injectors tank pump filter... different car it was a lexus i belive but it still had some corrosiveness to it but on the evo the lines are fine i would upgrade the seals top and bottom the are resitant to harsh fuels and a better pump if you dont currently have one

With my experences running e85, I personally had no issues with part failure due to the fuel. Some of my buddies had a couple minor issues with injectors clogging up from crap coming loose that was inside the tank and a couple walbro failures from reasons currently unknown, will find out soon. I ran it for almost 2 years with my last Evo, with dual walbros and pte1000cc with a 9 turbo and htaGreen.
