You better study the thermal properties of its seals, what is its maximum resistance to heat before burn occurs.
Calculation would be the same as to heat transfer. YOu have atmospheric temperature and inside temperature of pipe (dT). Get the also the thermal coefficients of the pipe, are and thickness. In that way you will be able to get the heat transfer.
