This is a better picture:
Also needs to be firestopped around that pipe. And, no, more 'caulking' is not going to do it.
In fact, ... (oh, no, not this again) ... is that caulking even compatible (chemical compatibility-wise) with that PVC?
I know, the TJI cut top chord is more of a major issue, just checking to see if you got the secondary issues too.
