alitex,

Sorry about mistyping your name.

Google: thermal imaging detectors
They will show you hot spots on the wall from the heated pipe. But,they are very expensive.

Google: non-contact thermometer
You might do a simple version by using a sensitive electronic IR thermometer and measuring a lot of points on the wall and making a thermal map on graph paper.

There are metal detectors that might be used to detect the pipe, but not differentiate between cold and hot pipes.

Sorry, I don't have any better solutions this morning. :(
