Pipe Tobacco is almost never inhaled by pipe smokers if they never smoked cigarettes beforehand, and pipe enthusiasts are more anal about natural tobacco and unnatural additives.
This is one of the difficult parts of reading up on lung cancers between both groups. I couldn’t find any studies pointing directly at “pipe and only pipe smoking”, as the population pools for testing people dwindled rather quickly by the late 1980’s since pipe smoking was mostly gone outside of hobbyists.
I’d pair this up with vaping/snus in the harm-reduction camp if that’s true. I wouldn’t consider any type of smoke entering your body as entirely harm-free… or vapor, or nicotine for that matter.
That is the most likely risk, but that tends to be more associated with chewing tobacco and dip if you’re going by how saturated the individual is by the medium vs severity of the risk.
Vaping… is the really iffy one. Who made the juice? What’s in it? What’s the coil made of? Does it dissolve into the vapor? How much? Does too much heat effect it chemically? Yada yada.

That can all be applied in some part to tobacco as well.
Oh shit, that would make smoking really bad for your lungs. You could even get lung cancer
Fun Fact!

AFAIK they are more likely to get somethijg like mouth cancer instead.

All crucial things to know. I’m lucky in that I know how to research supply chains and can afford juices made in Greece and France.
The heating part (that whole study was bullshit) you WILL know if it’s not right as soon as you inhale burning coil.
No in favor of smoking or vaping but…

What do you mean pipe smokers don’t inhale pipe tobacco? What do they do with the pipe then?
Taste it and let it roll on, same as cigars. Don’t take my word for it, any other source will say the same.
Wait til you learn about what they used to put in cigarette filters
