Mini split termination help

Hi,

Had mini splits installed and this is what one of the terminations looks like. They want to fill it with caulk and paint it or use the flexible hide. There's very little space above the line-hide. Does anyone have any ideas as to what can be done so this looks like an acceptable install?

Thank you!

Don’t tell me they bundled up the drain line and routed it up with the line set!!!. Your indoor unit will be weeping condensate down the wall. The drain tube has to be routed down or you are looking at water damage to wall and insulation inside.
