My rubber drain line was about 1/2-3/4" from my dp, and it never melted. You might want to put some fire sleeve over it, though. My new drain line is made from EARL's Perform-o-flex and Swivel Seal fittings.

I use Perform-o-Flex and Ano-Tuff fittings for my drain lines. But extreame heat will still affect the line, you still want to eliminate any direct contact between the drain line and the downpipe.
