Looks like a twin flue converoter to me. Wrong part by the looks of it.

twin flue would have 2 outlets

If you haven't left yet, make sure you take the Installation manual home and spend the night reading through the Flue Installation section over and over again.
If their technical section can't tell you what the part does, then I'd be asking LL to return it where he bought it, then get LL to buy a boiler of your choice.

That looks like flue rubber inside out or a turbolator for the air intake. Sits inside collar? That part looks very odd.. As if it's to join normal flue port over the air inlet for a twin port. But never seen it before. Land lord do shopping on eBay?
