Usually yes, drill a hole, don't notch the top plate.
We don't want to weaken the top plates for the truss above.
Worst case would be to add a stud below that truss.

You will need to open the wall up somemore so you have room to work.
Agree with the drilling the top plate rather than notching

Understood. You answered my question and went beyond to explain the best approach. Amazing.
Thanks!
