Yes you may safely remove anything that you no
I think you meant /usr/portage/distfiles, right? Yes, you can remove
them. They are the source archives of the packages you've installed.
But, if you need to reemerge any of your packages, you'll have to
download it again.

My experience is that 'eclean' is not efficient at removing things,
