Felix,
Now that is a new one to me. I get lots of questions about how the bore size is measured, and the differences between a conical bore and a cylindrical bore. And the infamous step-bore question.
That is why I wrote so many articles to start with. And later some others helped me out by lending their expertise.
I have written about 5 articles on mouthpieces, starting with this one:

Marc Melton was kind enough to write an article on trumpet bores
http://www.ibowtie.com/tmptbore.html
Here is an article on one piece/two piece bells
http://www.ibowtie.com/bellpieces.html
And this article about the "care and feeding of your trumpet"
http://www.ibowtie.com/tmptcleaning.html
These along with several others and the leadpipe article I hope answer basic questions. But certainly the leadpipe issue has been the hardest to explain. And I need to write an article about the mouthpiece gap (anyone like to give it a go?).
