If after opening up your laptop, you did not notice thermal pads in that area, then yes, you should remove it. Given how it's not meant to be in contact with the hetapipe, you should remove the thermalpad.

Make and model+SKU of your laptop?

When i first open my laptop it was a thermal pad but a little one , i dont remeber if he was on entire cpu but it was on heatsink

If there was a thermal pad(found in the spot you placed the thermal pad on) when you opened the laptop then you're good. If it wasn't there, then there is no need of it to be there.
