Any icons in the stat panel must be attached to an object. If the icon is assigned to an object already, you simply add that object to the stat list. Otherwise, you can create a place-holder object, assign it the icon, and put that up.

If you want an icon to be added to a statpanel, you have to refer to the atom itself. Heres an example: 
obj/Icons/Wind_Pipe
    icon = 'WindPipe.dmi'

mob/Stat()
    var/obj/wpipe = Locate(/obj/Icons/Wind_Pipe,src.contents) // This stores a reference to an object of type /obj/Icons/Wind_Pipe in the variable wpipe. Look at Locate() below
    statpanel("Pictures") // new statpanel called Pictures
    stat(wpipe) // now use the reference to the wind pipe object in stat()

proc
    Locate(path,list/L) // Locate(the path of the item, the list to search)
        for(var/a in L) // for everything in L
            if(istype(a,path)) // if that anythings(refered to by a) type is equal to the path your searching for
                return a // return it

Hope this didnt confuse you more than help you, and note that it's not tested.
