I see award availability when searching direct, but EVA is not releasing it to any alliance partners. So I'm wondering if there is some clever way to get miles into EVA...

The only path I could find would be to transfer to Hilton (1 membership rewards point = 2 Hilton Honor points). Then transfer from hilton to EVA (1000 Hilton points = 100 EVA Air miles). At 5:1 that would be a HORRIBLE value. 1000 membership miles = 2000 Hilton = 200 EVA.

There is no clever way, you're going to take it in the shorts if you want to do AMEX->Hilton->EVA. You're likely better off just buying the ticket through AMEX Travel and using MR to pay.
