Does this work for you?

It deletes all those lines in the buffer that does not match the pattern?

The problem is that I need to find the pattern at position mod 8.  I can't use this 32 times like I can for the highlighting rule because the pattern might not match at position 8 but it could at position 16 but if I've already deleted it I will never know.

And as far as adding the line 32 times is concerned, you could
consider adding that in your .vimrc file. That way, you'll do it only
once.

Or an autocmd on the file type.  Good idea.
