Such arrangements are often called tuyeres. The access port arrangement comprises an inner part forming a core with an outer periphery and an outer part comprising a bore therethrough having an inner periphery positioned around the outer periphery of the inner part with the path way defined by a gap between the outer periphery of the inner part and the inner periphery on the outer part. The arrangement further comprises one or more bridges that span the gap between the outer periphery of the inner part and the inner periphery of the outer part.
