Revit - Walls to bottom of Beam Automation Script via dynamo, or Revit API

Hello Dynamo Folk,

I’ve been tackling a automation Script where the walls should meet the bottom of beams which are in a linked file, for a whole floor of a large building.

I am able to Filter out the walls of a particular level and and beams of the beams above them.
then I change the wall height to match the level-to-level height and run a clash to filter out the beams and walls appropriately.

now the issue i face is multiple beams of different sizes intersect a single wall. one option was change the height base on the smallest beam. but i think i have gotten my mapping/ list manipulation wrong.
could some one check?

the second was to change the wall sketch line - but i do not think that is as yet possible inside of dynamo. anybody know better ?

here is a snap of the script i am using .

for some reason it’s not reading my beams from the linked model
