If I wire it directly to the batteries ( which are outside on tongue ), will the cables to the inverter fit through the small hole entering the trailer with the dc electrical bundle?

Definitely requires separate cables straight from the battery. I would suggest that you use "0" or "ought" gauge wire from the battery to the inverter.
I am installing the 600 watt inverter that Airstream uses and I am bringing the wire through a plastic exterior electrical box attached and sealed to the aluminum plate in the spare tire area behind the tongue where there is no belly pan or insulation. I am using liquid tight connectors for each wire into the box. I haven't installed it yet but could send you a picture of the box with connectors installed and the area where it will come through the floor. I'll try to get the pictures this afternoon.
