Default should i wrap?

i'm almost done with my install. my charge pipe comming off the compressor is touching the plastic shroud of my radiator fan and the foam insulating pipe of one of my ac pipes. my oil feed and water feed also is touching the charge pipe as well. how hot does the charge pipe get comming off the compressor? should i wrap it and the lines touching it?

the charge pipe doesnt get that hot because stock cars use rubber hose right from there.. you will be fine.
