The length of stainless steel pipe H is
34 of the length of stainless steel pipe L and the length of stainless steel pipe L is

The length of stainless steel pipe L is repeated. Make the length of stainless steel pipe L the same. LCM of 4 and 1 is 4.
Total length of all the 4 stainless steel pipes
= 3 u + 4 u + 8 u + 36 u
= 51 u
