I was going to say that. You are getting heat transfer from the pipes to the probes.

Do what I did... get some flexible thermocouple probes and insert them between the pipes and the rubber coupler into the air stream.

I got K-type thermocouples that had 10' leads, so they would reach into the cockpit.
