get the wrap and most auto parts stores, get the kind that actually has the woven ceramic materail. it is about $19.95 for 10 feet. use the rest for all kinds of other fun little projects like where you radiator hose is close to your inlet pipe on the drivers side

Look up AWE Twin2 exhaust installation instruction. It shows how you can rotate the bracket for the fuel EVAP line to put some distance away from the exhaust pipes.

Also wrap it with some sort of insulator to reduce radiant heat.
