Ok so measure the circumference of the pipe and cut a piece of copper brake line to this length
Then split the pipe along its length and push the split onto the lip of the pipe all the way around and solder in place.
Assuming its steel as i dont know if you can solder ali

rather than split it grind it back on one side until you can easily push through then you can push it on and solder....that is how I got a rounded edge on my exhaust tip...... for beads to keep pipes on simply bash a piece of brake pipe or cut a strip from a copper pipe and roll it around then solder ...did it on some of my steel water pipes
