(Terminology LL10 is the payout schedule you're talking about LL9 is the other common one). For 6D LL10 the ev-maximizing index is it is +4/5 (depending who you ask) and +7 for LL9. Like I said, no one has published a straight answer to what you're looking for but perhaps what I just told you will give you an idea.

Your second question can't be answered as is because the answer depends on a few variables, which I will list:
-Payout schedule
-Decks
-Current Penetration (if you are talking about a EoR at a certain point rather than average)

Your EV and variance are also dependent of those same variables.

Elliot Jacobson says that any penetration worse than 7/8 would be "of dubious value to an AP", but take that with a grain a salt because I have the impression the standard he has for value for an AP is quite high because he has in mind someone who knows lots of different plays and has room to be picky.
Thanks Heat ! Sadly, I do not own CVData. I forgot to mention the game is 8D 75% pen and the payout schedule is LL10. I guess I will play LL on +5TC to be safe.
