The Ashford has been burning great with no smoke after the cat is engaged but cleaning the fly ash off this morning it looks like the cumbustor is separating from the case - is that normal after one year? Thanks for you help.

I suspect it's not normal as it provides a path for smoke to go around (of a similar size as the gasket is supposed to stop).

My cat doesn't show this.
