substitute "xx" for your number
Code:
 $ ruby -ne 'print if $_["xx"]' file

Do you mean any number in that pattern ? If so...
Code:
grep "[0-9][0-9] [0-9][0-9] [0-9][0-9] [0-9][0-9] [0-9][0-9] [0-9][0-9]" filename.rep

Try...
Code:
grep '[0-9][0-9] [0-9][0-9] [0-9][0-9] [0-9][0-9] [0-9][0-9] [0-9][0-9]' *.rep
