For the hairsplitters, 107 and 110(.5) Shimano-style cartridge BBs generally give the same chainline. The 107 is offset to the drive side, and the 110 is symmetric. The same is true with 113/115/116 and 118/121. I found this out empirically when I tried to nudge the chainline out a couple of mm on my Romulus by swapping a 115 and then a 116 for my 113. Nothing changed on the drive side! I assume other brands that copy Shimano are the same, but I'd be interested to hear otherwise. And, who knows, standards aren't exactly standards in the bike world, but I wouldn't expect 107 -> 110 to affect chainline.
