Problem with the Helix Geometry Tool

Hi I am currently trying out the new version 4.1. I am creating a series of hollow pipes and I wish to simulate the flow through them in a 3D model. I created the major section of the pipe using the Helix tool. I created one large helix and an smaller inner helix then used the difference toold to obtain the hollow pipe. I then added various segments of pipe using the Working Plane and Revolve tools. When I tried to implement the material properties and the equations, I can select the outer segment no problem. My difficulty is with the inner section that I created with the Helix tool. For some reason it only seems to keep 3 of the four wall segments. I have exhausted my troubleshooting ideas. Can anyone help me out here?
