Interesting reasoning. How exactly do you expect condensation to
form on a pipe that is burried in plaster?
In order for condenstation to form, the pipe has to be in
contact with air carrying some water vapour. Being in contact
with plaster which is at equilibrium with the air *will not*
result in condensation on the pipe's surface.
