so this is the home inspection.

You can throw the inspection in the trash, and waive the inspection as far as the lender is concerned - but that doesn't solve the basic issue of how to make him pay for it.

Unfortunately, those items are easily disguised by a regular appraisal of value (URAR) - so the next buyer could very well be OK with it, and off you go. You can't make him pay so he performs the deal.

If you decide to eat it, make sure the appraiser doesn't note those "defects" on the appraisal - the appraiser won't look into the sewer lines unless it's noted on the purchase and sale agreement or its blatantly obvious something is defective.

usually, appraisers are concerned with what actually shows in the picture. Most will bend / not disclose minor defects as long as the pictures taken are clean.
