Would those lubes burn clean? Would it help keep things lubed? Is it snake oil? Would they do more harm than good?
Is e85 that much more "dry" than e15 gasoline?
-Off topic- Air oil separator/oil catch can takes out the oil that would otherwise be put into the intake, which is bad? Since engine oil isn't designed to burn(?) or does not burn clean? therefore creating deposits and gunking up the engine?

There are only two main concerns with E85 and oil.
1) Make sure the oil is ILSAC GF-5
2) Change the oil a bit more frequently, like every 4-5k
