What is the python command line syntax of "Generate Wizard" in ET GeoWizards in ArcGIS?

Question

I have the text file formatted as follows

ID,Z
1,4.000
366472.538,6353290.852
366477.538,6353289.003
END
ID,Z
2,4.000
366892.538,6353534.939
366894.951,6353537.289
366897.538,6353540.591
366898.814,6353542.289
END

The text file is used to create contour polylines by using "ET GeoWizards->Generate(Import/Export)". Because there are heaps of text files and it will involve a lot of repetitive manual work. I am trying to use the Arcpy to automate the process. However, there is no command line syntax for "Generate(Import/Export)" in arcpy.ET toolbox. I also searched http://www.ian-ko.com/ET_GeoWizards/UserGuide/et_geowizards_userguide.htm.

I prefer to use an existing command line syntax to automate the work.

There used to be an ArcGIS sample tool called "Create Features from Text File" that would take this line UNGENERATE format and create a feature class from it.

Unless you can re-locate a version of that tool which still works with today's ArcGIS version (which it should) you will need to write it anew using arcpy.da.InsertCursor().
