Found this thread just now when searching aeromotive filters. But like him looks like smallest SS element map is showing is 40.

Edit: still researching only found 1x10micron ss filter from jegs but not what im after.

In more researching and reading an article from "aeromotive" im starting to wonder if they only go down to 40 micron due to properties/make up of E85 and how fast contaminates build up. They said to maximize the life of your fuel pump you are supposed to change the filter every 10 running hours, and if you dont plan to they dont suggest running there pump. (Post I read was from 2013 so maybe things have changed) but due to filters clogging so fast and causing lean condition that might be why 40micron is as low as im finding.
