Braided steel lines will either fail or fail what they are rubbing against if allowed to rub-any covering will only delay the inevitable if you have a rub. Also if your running a larger oil cooler some type of thermostatic control is needed-too cold of oil is almost as bad as too hot of oil.
I recently got like 4’ ft worth of titanium heat resistant, 1” ID “shielding”. It’s the same “hairy” woven material that most people use for their spark plug wire heat/high temp resistant boots/socks.

I don’t think there’s gonna be any issue with heat; and although I feel like the woven titanium fabric will hold up for a “good while”, idk what to expect in the long run (3-4+ years)?
