Pipe end fitting with improved venting

A method of forming a pipe assembly, comprising:

• forming an outer body having an outer surface, an inner surface defining a first bore, and an end surface extending between the inner and outer surfaces;
• forming a passage in the outer body extending from the end surface to the outer surface of the outer body, wherein the passage includes a first portion extending from the end surface and parallel to the first bore, and a second portion extending from the outer surface of the outer body to the first portion of the passage;
• forming an inner body having an inner surface defining a second bore and an outer surface;
• securing a first portion of the inner body outer surface to the outer body inner surface;
• securing an end of a pipe around and to a second portion of the inner body outer surface;
• securing an end of a jacket to the outer body outer surface, wherein the jacket is disposed around the pipe;
• and
• forming serrations into the second portion of the inner body outer surface before the securing of the pipe thereto;
• wherein the first and second portions of the passage are in fluid communication with each other and with a space extending between the jacket and the pipe, wherein the outer body is a single piece, and wherein the first portion of the passage is a unitary first portion.
