Welcome to the community! I would recommend sorting through the data in your file to only return pipes and/or other items you want to get information from. From there, use the nodes given to you in Dynamo to retrieve the data you want, then create a list of this data to export. Below is a quick graph I put together that should return all pipes handle ID that is in the current files model space.
