Recommendations on this show and how to fix this gap…

First choice would be caulking.

Second choice, 1/4" quarter round or some other trim, maybe even door stop used like a little baseboard...

Thanks!

I’ll also have to replace some copper pipes with something else as they’re against the wall and will need to be moved away.

Use Pex. If I were in town I’d give you a hand, the tools are a bit pricy.

I have the poverty version with rings and manual crimper he can borrow. Not as good as expansion pex but good enough for the few times I needed it

I also have the poor man’s version , hand crimpers and bags of rings @Mimico is welcome to borrow.
This stuff has all come down in price lately for the basics kits . If you’re in the game you can spend thousands of electric crimpers and cutters and swedge enders , but nobody is paying me to do this stuff .

PexB. That works fine, it’s cheaper and you can get everything at Home Depot.

I use A, it’s a little more expensive but faster to install. Pex B uses a more fittings and creates more pressure drop than A or copper.
