My favorite bird is the crane,
I’m no plumber, but I got pipes and drains.
Without a mirror, I’ve never seen your face,
I carry your world, but I am not in space.
A constant heavy burden I assist,
My favorite dance is the twist.
What am I?

You're a
neck! Specifically, I think you're MY neck.

You can crane your neck
I’m no plumber, but I got pipes and drains.
Your neck has a windpipe, and an esophagus (which will drain down to your stomach.
Without a mirror, I’ve never seen your face,
It would be rather difficult for a neck to see a face.
I carry your world, but I am not in space.
Your neck carries your head (which contains your brain, and your consciousness, which would be your world).
A constant heavy burden I assist,
Keeps your head up all day.
My favorite dance is the twist.
You can twist your neck, though I admit I twist mine more often as a stretch than a dance move.
Title bonus
Pain in the neck.
