The snout will most liklely fit over the 5.5 as it will be 6" at least that was the way mine was. There is no such 5.5 stove pipe the way I understood it since a 6" will slide over the liner so it keeps the right inside fitting configuration so nothing can spill out of the pipe like creosote if it were the other way around.

Nothing to do with 5.5 stovepipe. The liner is 5.5 and using the snout for six inch lets you use 6" pipe through the thimble to connect to the snout and for connection to the stove. There is a 5.5 flex liner tee with 6" snout sitting here on my workbench.
In fact I have never seen a 5.5 tee that didn't have a six inch snout on it. Specifically because of the lack of 5.5" connector pipe.
