stucco against dura vent?

[dsgreco]

I am in the process of doing my stucco enclosure. I plan on attaching metal lath to the decorative arch in the front of the oven opening and then up and around the duravent chimney.

My question....

1. What is the recommended way to have the stucco against the duravent chimney?

Casing bead with a bead of high temp silicone between the duravent and the casing bead.

casing bead - Google Search

Casing bead appears to be something to protect the vulnerable edge of the cement board.
