Hartmut is correct, but Ed still has a point. Keeping the shroud in
place without at least the air inlet connected concentrates heat on a
portion of the pipe and can lead to cracking due to localized stresses.
Also, the added heat will accelerate corrosion between the aluminum
shroud and the steel or stainless pipe. It is a simple matter to remove
the shroud when rerouting the hoses. Why avoid it?
