The 'white stuff' on the threads is Teflon pipe thread sealing tape.

why not ?
as i recall the first 'wonder uses' of teflon was for cookware and IRON's
Never thought about teflon used on cookware or irons at the time. My first thought was that the extremely hot exhaust would just melt the teflon. On hind sight, all teflon cookware that I've seen warn against using on high heat to prevent damage. But if it works for bobandcat, then now I know.... :S
Thanks,
