Ignoring the mess ... is it possible to get a 7” diameter flue in the position highlighted? Stove installer is saying not, is he right or just a bit fiddly? Quite happy to take the ridge tile off (for obvious reasons!) but how would the flashing fit?

Looking at different options for making good the hole that I am going to have to cut in my roof for the stainless flue from the woodburner. Basic plan is to have a single wall black stove pipe exiting the stove and going up to the vaulted ceiling (this will throw more heat out into the room, look neater, and save a fair bit of money). Just before reaching the ceiling I will switch to insulated twin wall stainless pipe, which will continue up to above ridge height. I will need to seal around the flue at three points: the airtightness layer, the roof membrane, and the corrugated steel roof covering. There appear to be several options for the final flashing. I'm leaning towards the 'Dektite' silicone flashing as a cheap and easy to use design. Perhaps I could just use more of the same for the other two flashings? There isn't much space to play with of course, especially for the seal to the membrane and to the corrugated roofing, which are only about three inches apart.
