Re: nanoVNA as TDR on coiled heliax?

TDR measurments are not significantly affected by wire being coiled. If it had ferrite sleeves on it maybe, but not just coiled, and certainly not a large diameter coil. Youll likely have a greater error from temperature.
I can't imagine anything on the outside of the coax (ferrite sleeves, iron pipe, anything) having an effect unless it's coax with a leaky shield. (they actually make deliberately leaky coax, for things like distributing radio signals in mines and tunnels)
