burner pipe

Maybe I am just dumb this morning but what is the burner pipe?

It must be the pipe that supplies air to the burn pot. My local stove shop sold me a piece of rope packing that had adhesive on one side. I wrapped it around the pipe where it goes into the stove under the burn pot, where the pellets burn. The adhesive has held up well.

yes thats it-I will ask at my stove place-not sure what part of the pipe it goes on-do u think this would be the heat output problem?

I have two Whitfield stoves, one has the gasket, the other doesn't. I don't see a real big difference between the fires in the burn pots.
