Property was flipped. The "flipper" is the one who had it inspected for his buddy who is buying the house.
Mortgage company wants it re-inspected. I asked right away what they did about the roof, the said they had no idea what else to do.

For some reason, I can't get the link to work to the Iko site. They've got the nicest handbook for mod bit flashing details.
You can use a lead sleeve like Bill's (Iko) pic, or you can make a cylinder sleeve out of mod bit, and weld it to the base flashing.
Try googling modified bitumen flashing; what comes up when I do that is the Iko site at the top. Use their link to download the handbook; it's invaluable.
If I could get my link to work, I'd put it up here.

Strip in a regular roof jack similarly to the detail Mark and Bill supplied, use sealant from the jack to the pipe, then install a neoprene collar to protect the sealant. Do not use mastic in contact with the PVC pipe.

Thanks guys!! Great info.
Kurt,
downloaded the handbook, thx for the link.
Michael,
No worries, I learn so much from your posts and questions, couldnt possibly be offended. How do you get the site to load on phone? Blackberry too slow for me. (thread drift coming)

Yep, that's it.
Just curious Rocon, but why wouldn't you just buy a mod bit boot?
GAF has a bunch of accessory flashing boots made for mod bit.
No caulk, no mastic to worry about with the PVC, no extra parts, no nothing other than a welded mod bit with a lead sleeve collar.
The NRCA doc's usually show a mod bit sleeve with a hose clamp to mechanically fasten the sleeve to the vent pipe.
I've never seen the southern Cal method.

Kurt,
Well I would not call it the Southern Cal method.
If you want Ideal then use NRCA details.
My repair offers ease of install with off the shelf components that offer redundancy at each of the vulnerable spots. It will also outlive the rest of the roof from what I see in the picture.
I just designed a solution that would slide over the PVC elbows. I do not believe most lead jackets I have seen have enough wiggle room to make the curve. (I do not suggest having a roofer cutting the intake and exhaust vent for your mechanical system.) Stripping the flashing in gives a redundant mastic level at the flange, and the shape of the jack keeps the mastic away from the PVC.

Actually, my mistake on the boot.....I was thinking plumbing vent instead of the PVC combustion vent.
I think your method would work great; I've just never seen it and thought it was a southern cal thing.
We usually just torch a mod bit sleeve to a base flashing, and clamp the top. On plumbing vents, I use the GAF accessory stuff.

I think I've said this before, but, it's a shame that IKO products aren't as good as their instruction manual.
