here's another solution, but you'll need a vi-clone that
supports multiple 'windows' (e.g Vim, Elvis etc..):
$ vi currentfile
:split anotherfile
highlight lines 500 - 700
500G
V
700G
d
Insert lines in current file
Move down to the other file (^wj) and press:

Hello guys,
I have a problem where I need to add a delimiter, that can be | for example, after each 28000 chars.
The problem is that sometimes 1 row, which should contain 28000 chars is split in 2, so I want to put the delimiter after each 28000 so I will know the end of each row.

gvimdiff
VIMDIFF(1) General Commands Manual VIMDIFF(1)
NAME
vimdiff - edit two, three or four versions of a file with Vim and show differences
SYNOPSIS
vimdiff [options] file1 file2 [file3 [file4]]
gvimdiff
DESCRIPTION
Vimdiff starts Vim on two (or three or four) files. Each file gets its own window. The differences between the files are highlighted.
This is a nice way to inspect changes and to move changes from one version to another version of the same file.
See vim(1) for details about Vim itself.
When started as gvimdiff the GUI will be started, if available.
In each window the 'diff' option will be set, which causes the differences to be highlighted.
The 'wrap' and 'scrollbind' options are set to make the text look good.
The 'foldmethod' option is set to "diff", which puts ranges of lines without changes in a fold. 'foldcolumn' is set to two to make it easy
to spot the folds and open or close them.
OPTIONS
Vertical splits are used to align the lines, as if the "-O" argument was used. To use horizontal splits instead, use the "-o" argument.
For all other arguments see vim(1).
