I don't see a damper. I see what looks like galvanized duct pipe that is close to wiring and what looks to be a combustible wall.
This is triple wall chimney pipe. I believe it’s 8”. Can I just connect the back of the wood burning insert 6” to this pipe or do I need to try run a flex 6” through it?
Again we need more info. What make and model fireplace does that pipe connect to? What insert are you using?
But no you absolutely cannot just connect to that pipe. It isn't rated for the temperatures needed for a woodstove it's only rated for a fireplace
