ἔστι δὲ ὁδὸς ἀπὸ τοῦ πρυταν ε ίου καλουμένη Τρίποδες·
The tokenization splits πρυτανείου into 6–8; treat the three pieces as one genitive noun syntactically, attaching 6 and 7 to 8. The sentence is an existential/copular clause: ὁδός is the subject, καλουμένη a modifying participle, and Τρίποδες its predicative name.

ἀφʼ οὗ καλοῦσι τὸ χωρίον, ναοὶ ὅσον ἐς τοῦτο μεγάλοι, καί σφισιν ἐφεστήκασι τρίποδες χαλκοῖ μέν, μνήμης δὲ ἄξια μάλιστα περιέχοντες εἰργασμένα.
The relative clause ἀφʼ οὗ καλοῦσι τὸ χωρίον is followed by an elliptical nominal clause: ναοὶ ... μεγάλοι, with τρίποδες as subject of ἐφεστήκασι and εἰργασμένα agreeing with τρίποδες; χαλκοῖ is predicate/attributive material adjective. The form ὅσον is taken adverbially (‘as far/as greatly’), with some uncertainty.

The construction reports that Phryne once asked what was most beautiful among the works; the subject of the infinitives is understood, with ἐραστὴν as predicate accusative with διδόναι. The second ὅ τι is the object/content of φαίνοιτο, with οἱ dative of appearance and αὐτῷ referring to the speaker/artist; a few attachment details are interpretive.

ἐσδραμὼν οὖν οἰκέτης Φρύνης ἔφασκεν οἴχεσθαι Πραξιτέλει τὸ πολὺ τῶν ἔργων πυρὸς ἐσπεσόντος ἐς τὸ οἴκημα, οὐ μὲν οὖν πάντα γε ἀφανισθῆναι·
The subject οἰκέτης is nominative with ἔφασκεν; οἴχεσθαι and ἀφανισθῆναι are infinitival complements. πυρὸς ἐσπεσόντος is a genitive absolute, while τὸ πολὺ τῶν ἔργων is the accusative subject/content of οἴχεσθαι. The final οὐ...πάντα γε ἀφανισθῆναι qualifies the reported claim: not everything was destroyed.
