Need advice to connect vent hood to exhaust

DIY friends, I installed this range hood over my range. I have discovered that has a 6.75" i.e. 7" exhaust and the vent is 6" (per code I guess). I bought a 7" to 6" reducer but it is too tall and covers the existing vent partially. Any advice on how I can connect these? I attached an image below. https://preview.redd.it/a5tycp3hlfxe1.jpg?width=4624&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2389ba1ef2d7d43ad6c8ac720cf9e3a5817527a3 submitted by /u/geodesic27 [link] [comments]
