I drove my 240D for 6 years on B100, and I replaced only the tank lines and injector return lines once, with Viton. Never a problem after that.
Let me correct one point you made, biodiesel is not "corrosive". It is a very effective solvent, and it will dissolve natural and synthetic rubbers. But the Mercedes inline pumps and steel injectors are extremely durable, and Viton is very effective line material. I re-sealed my VW TDI pump with it and it handles B100 and pump diesel in any concentration.
