Hardware shops or stove places sell a tapered sheet metal piece which is inserted into the flue. Sounds like the pipe you got made is very small? I'm no expert so make sure you get another opinion as its not something to chance.

Be very careful what your doing as you could poison yourself or someone else with Carbon Monoxide.
You really need to get someone who knows about Stoves to take a look at it for you.
