I didn't think it was wif format because he mentioned A-F Letters only and isn't wallet import format base58?
If its hexadecimal then standard would be 64 characters
Right, but good tips

Not exactly 64, no.
The key itself is 64 but there is a prepended version byte and 4 extra bytes of checksum at the end. This adds 5 x 2 = 10 hex chars. I'm not sure how you get to 80 but I'm trying to figure it out :)
