Agree with Winston.

If time and situation permits, park the aircraft in a position that will not result in the rest of the aircraft being in flames.

Definitely run to Engine Fire checklist first to contain the problem. Then assess the situation. An engine fire alone does not warrant an emergency evacuation. Plus, running the memory items could possibly eliminate the fire and therefore the time critical emergency.

Not an expert...just my opinion.
