Hi Debbie. A few tips to get a better response:
1. Post in the classics forum.
2. Provide a photo of the stove.
3. Dimensions of desired oval pipe.
4. Any info you can find from any tags on the stove.

Ace Hardware has a good selection.
You may need to adjust the crimp with hand crimpers, a tool that is very useful and usually required when making connections where connector pipe is cut. (not just at the oval)
Depending on installation, you may be able to simply ovalize the pipe section that connects to stove. Sometimes that depends on if the flue damper is within easy reach that way. It takes an entire pipe length to ovalize, and the damper would need to be at the very top of it, which sometimes catches at the joint. So position damper accordingly.

Many old stoves just need the round stove pipe ovalized one end. Have you tried this? If that doesn't fit, Woodman's has a selection of adapters.
