What is the best way to protect your oil lines for a remote filter as they past the header and where might I buy some. Thanks Tom

I bought DEI Heat Sheath, sized appropriately to fit over my lines. Available at Lordco, Mopac, and you can probably order it in at AVR. Comes in three foot lengths.

IMO you don't need anything.  Just make sure they don't touch.
That's the way mine have been for nearly 20 years now.
