You are correct on both counts. I stand corrected.
For there to be a perfect oxygen/fuel mixture is weird as hell.
Reading the MSDS it says you need a window of 10% to 70% limit saturation for it to become combustible. So at least 10% of the atmosphere of those pipes consisted of Carbon Monoxide. You'd think they would have measures in place to stop this sort of thing.
Auto-ignition temperature
Flash point
607°C (1124.6°F)
MSDS says you need to get it pretty damn hot for spontaneous combustion. That's a lot of pressure to get to that temperature. That means there had to be a spark.

I doubt that this is normal.
