Making exhaust hood properly fit pipe going through attic (about an inch off)

New house. There is what seems to be a combination microwave and oven exhaust hood above the oven. The exhaust pipe doesn't quite fit over the connection with damper that is part of the microwave/exhaust hood. It's probably about an inch off, and the upper pipe shown is immovable.



How do I handle making this fit properly? Is there some type of flex piping I can use under code? Is there a slanted "extension" piece I can get, perhaps where you cut off a bit to make it the amount of horizontal movement you want? Then, cutting the pipe coming down from the attic so there's only a few inches left, and connecting to that?



As is, it leaks a certain amount of heat and CO into this cabinet...



The picture makes it look like I might be able to squeeze the "bottom circular pipe to rectangular pipe converter" a tad to the right, but no, that doesn't work no matter how hard we push on it.
