A long time back Alaska Flyer magazine had an article about
overnighting on frozen lakes. The authors used a old fashion plumbers
blow torch and a length of cheap stove pipe to duct the heat to the
engine cowling. The torch could be refueled from the wing tank drain
so no extra fuel needed to be carried.
Although I have one of those old timey torches I have never attempted
to fire it up. Too chicken I guess.

My Dad use to use one.
Of course, he's gone now.....
