Bathroom Fitting

Protruding pipe that sits around the toilet?

Dear Mybuilder I am about to purchase an ex-council house circa the 1950s which has a separate W/C and bathroom next door containing a bathtub/hand basin. I am doing the rip out the w/c myself before getting the mybuilder, knock through a doorway into the adjoining bedroom to convert this space into an ensuite (a very small 1m x 2.50m one). However, there is a grey pipe that goes from the external wall around the top of the low-level toilet cistern and into the bathroom. As I have no idea what this pipe is, I feel very reluctant to start the rip out. Has anyone come across something similar?
