Stove pipe repair

The stove pipe that warms the air/ fuel mixture from the carburettor had a small leak. Nothing major but I filled the bottom pipe (from the exhaust) with white spirit to keep it clear, and found a small leak.


Not having welded for a couple of years (and never doing it properly!) I thought I should try and seal it. The pipe are located in the cool air area so it would be good to minimize any unnecessary warm air.


The leak was between the two pipes which are separate but held together with the metal cover in the middle.
