I recently moved into a new house. Upstairs in a coner of the room
the propane ho****er vent runs through the floor up through the
ceiling. With the ho****er heater running the pipe never gets to hot
to touch. Can I enclose the pipe with a couple of 1x8s in other
words box the vent pipe in the corner?

Since it doesn't get hot to touch it is reasonable to assume it is B
type pipe. You can enclose as long as you leave at least 1" clearance
between the pipe and any combustible materials

And where does that 1" spec come from?
