Welcome to the forum
Looks like it needs to be sealed
high temp silicone, or silicone tape, or metal tape your choice

The rim is very narrow and difficult to tape.. I bought some RTV silicone but do you think I need to remove adapter and T vent ??? Seal from inside? Why is it coming out between ridges…. Newbie here… It ran great all last winter… Strong independent female 😂… but this is beyond my googling and youtube expertise
