Is this hole through the boiler a East Tennessee design?

I'm researching a method to distill on grain. That doesn't require a jacket for a Bain Marie style boiler. I will soon be starting my copper pot build and I'm digging to find all options.

While skimming old newspaper articles I noticed local moonshiner busts that all had one thing in common. This hole through the still for propane/ heat to be above the grain. Has anyone tried this or know anyone using a design similar?

I will add that I searched here and didn't come up with any answers. I really don't even know what to call it.

This hobby really is not so much about making alcohol. But bottling opportunities to make memories with Friends and Family.
