I need to add some high heat caulk to my pipe that goes straight out the wall. It's a little leaky as far as cold on one side. I do have some black silicone that is good up to 450 degrees, is this good enough for heat or do I need a higher rated temp caulk ? Ty..

Should be yup
IMHO higher temp silicone is always better, however I can comfortably put my hand on my venting about a foot away from the stove

Correct and it will come off when you need to remove it
