Help with stove connection

Finally bought a used Lennox Montage. Nice stove.. cleaned it from toe to hair. Pulled a 4 inch liner and have a 4 to 3" tee installed. I need about 12" or horizontal run before I get to the tee. What am I missing? Is there a generic appliance adapter that I am missing?

There is an appliance adapter that is vent specific that will mate the stove to the venting, be certain to properly seal and physically secure the adapter to the stove. This is one of the primary smoke leakage locations when a stove is installed.

So it is specific to the maker of the chimney liner and "tee" ? Seal it with high temp silicone? Got a generic one from HDepot and siliconed it and screwed it in place. All joints are "running" the correct way. Started it up for giggles. Runs great. It is a 4 year old stove. Previous owner ( for one year) did not now about the air exchanger scrape . The owner for the first two years supposedly knew how to clean.. After giving it the leaf blower douche and vacuum cleaner love.. it seems to be doing quite fine. Both fans were dirty. Combustion blower seemed to have some paint peeling off the housing.. not sure if this is normal. I will break it down next summer and change it to black...as per order of the boss..

Here it is in the hearth...

Now have the correct fittings and pipes.. works great. Have a little smoke leak at the top of the clean out tee.. I put rtv in the connector before putting the flex in.. probably have to seal around the top. Stove runs great.. By the way..Lowes green team does not work very well. Been screwing around with the damper and it does run better, but still bad. I have many different kinds of pellets in the garage to try. GT will probably not make the final cut.
