Plastic corrugation connects the toilet neck and sewage. If the junction of the corrugation with the toilet or its entrance to the sewer proceeds, then it is necessary to change the corrugation. This is not difficult enough, because the dimensions of the corrugation itself, as well as the holes that it connects, are standard, which excludes the need to adjust the size for each individual case.
