Meh, it should work. You may need to seal the door with fireproof rope and stove cement. I got some at a local stove store when my cubic mini started leaking. It was quite noticeable, the smell, and my co detector noticed too. As another commenter mentioned, having a cracked window is essential to allow draft to evacuate smoke. If you can find it, double wall pipe is way way safer and more functional. It says Pipe Diameter: 3.375", so maybe double wall pipe from the dickinson or cubic mini would work.
Otherwise, I'd recommend putting some chicken wire around the stove pipe, and also make a wire cage all around the stove, because it's impossible to completely avoid clothes/bedding falling on the stove in such a small space, while you're asleep. It's happened to others, and it's one of the reasons I use my china diesel heater while I'm sleeping.
TBH, it's kind of a pain trying to stay warm for 8 hours overnight with a wood stove, while maintaining fresh air. Your stove might be up to the task, but mine is too small (cubic mini cub) so I used to wake up cold af, no matter how low I'd turn it down.
Smoke getting in the van isn't an issue for me, long as you close your fan and crack a window. A propane torch helps to start it up, and those waxy logs from winco/walmart are great for starting a fire with little smoke. Coal produces very little smoke, but a lot of CO and it produces less draft which can make the CO waft in your van if it's not burning strong, with the intake wide open.
To get around clearance requirements in a small space, construct a radiant barrier of two pieces of aluminum/steel sheet, with stacked washers/nuts/etc as spacers, to create an air gap in between the plates. I did this with my stove and the bottom plate under my stove was cold with it running.
For the roof, use a Dektite #3 red hitemp fitting, with some hitemp caulk from ace, and bolt the fitting to the roof before the caulk dries. Leak proof for over a year for me.
