If you don't mind using sed, try
Code:
sed 's/^/Chain->Add("/; s/$/");/'

as a filter in your long pipe. It just replaces the start-of-string (^) with your first constant and the end-of-string ($) with the second.
If this does not do what you want, pls post more info on your problem, as I'm not sure I understand what your script is doing.
