It seems unlikely that your steam tracers would greatly stiffen the pipes moment of inertia. However one could derive a combined moment of inertia I suppose to see how much stiffer the tracer would make the pipe... see a book on statics roark and young etc.
If your tracer does stiffen the pipe significantly (>5%)I suspect it would be directional in nature, unfortuantely the beam pipe elemnet that CAESAR II as well as all other pipe flex beam element programs use is a circular tube with symetric properties about the neutral axis.
