UK Fireplace and Gas fire connection questions UK?

A few questions around fitting a fireplace and gas fire. I am well aware that a Corgi fitter is required for final connections/testing, but I need to prepare before his arrival!!

Is the standard method of connection 8mm microbore and what is the purpose of the ‘restrictor elbow’?
How should a marble back panel be ’sealed’ to the wall to prevent fumes passing behind it?
What is the norm with regards to the position of the restrictor elbow ie can it be concealed beneath the fireplace?

Thanks in advance

Sounds like you need to consult a Professional.
Not to sound arrogant, but I wouldn’t trust an answer from anyone on Y!A.
