Not surprised. I used visible heat damage (from structural composite damage to singed paint) to guide my coverage. There may be more going on than simply proximity of exhaust system parts to cowling.
I guess the 'safer' but slightly heavier approach would be to cover it all as Tim suggested.

Here's what I did after allowing heat to damage my cowling. The bad
news is that I had to repair the cowling's inside surface and structure
(scarfing, cloth, honeycomb). The good news is that I had a real good
indication of where the heat problem was. I have flown 2 years since
then with no additional damage or concern. I used red RTV to adhere
the pieces of foil faced insulation - probably the same stuff Tim used
but not sure.
