Default List of Parts Susceptible to E-85 problems

Does anyone have a comprehensive or even a "typical" list of parts / hoses / components on the 370 that must be or should be replaced or otherwise modified when making the switch to E-85?

I've tuned many of these cars on E85 with ECUTEK., you are unlikely to have any issues resulting directly from the use of the E85 itself as long as you follow other common-sense practices.

I have run E85 for a year and a half.

I would say plan on buying a new fuel pump at some point. My car only has 45k miles on it, but I think that E85 is eating on the pump.
