An 80mm lense for 6x6 or 6x7 medium format should serve you fine. It makes
little sense to degrade the photographic process by economising on the
enlarging lense. I can recommend the Schneider (Componon) and Rodenstock
(Rodagon) lenses. They are of consistent good quality. The Rogonar-S is
also quite nice.
