Are you talking about the flue terminal? Would need specific boiler make model, and a possible photo as there’s standard clearances and manufacturer’s guidance.

Your landlord isn't a trained gas engineer

my landlord says it ok to use

How does he know .... if he knows that much and is qualified to make that kind of comment then he should be doing his own gas safety certificates.
That's the reason there are 3 copies of the certificate. 1 for the landlord, one for the property (you) and one for the engineer, so an unscrupulous landlord can't hide anything.
Did you also receive a copy of the warning notice? Can you post a pic of that.

Depends what the notice said and whether he capped the boiler off. Flue too close to vents is not at risk....
