I left the old cover on and covered with Reynolds heavy duty aluminum foil.
Header Wrap sounds better . I'd still try to get the Reynolds over it.

I took mine off and have the bare tube exposed. I like that look better.

That should work ok; I got a new tube with insulator from The General to stay with OEM look.
