We leave 2" pipe for water and 7" pipe for sewer and once the pipes a put thru, they are packed with expanding grout.

I fill with expanding grout, then seal the over that with fibered tar on the outside of the foundation.
your pipe should be placed in the center of the sleeve, and shall not be subject to any building load
annual space between pipe and sleeve shall be sealed and made water tite
