Those do not look like Lines.  If they were, the second image would have not one but three grips, probably overlapping into a little blue bar, on each of the two toward the right.  Are they Block references?  Possibly Text?

They are polylines.

You can use QSELECT to select short polylines by their length and then delete them.

There are a lot of such polylines in your drawing so it may take AutoCAD a few minutes to select all of them.

Many of them are Polylines, but there are Text objects, Arcs, Lines, Solids, and maybe some other things.

 

Is the part you want to keep always in the same place and the same size?  If so, this works for me in your sample drawing [AutoLisp approach]:

 

(command

  "_.layer" "_thaw" "*" "_unlock" "*" "_on" "*" ""

  "_.erase" "_all" "_remove" "_window" "19100,2400" "32500,11900" ""

  "_.zoom" "_extents"

)

 

Or the equivalent could easily be done as a Tool Palette button macro command, or a Script.

Thaw/turn on all layers.

ERASE command
(type) ALL (to select everything in modelspace)
(hold SHIFT down and window around your titleblock/content)
hit <enter>
wait 10-15 seconds until the command is done.

QSAVE
Move on with your day.

 

Cleaned up file is atached: total time for cleanup, 30-seconds. You spent more time here looking for a more complex fix..
