Try this Thread, towards the end there is someone changing to a non-swirl manifold.

I'd already bought the manifold, Oh well.

Any photos that show where to seal up the hole once you've done this? Or pretty obvious one you get in there? |

I did mine while I was replacing the damaged piston. I was surprised just how easy the flaps come out the manifold, it literally takes 2 minutes to do. The vacuum actuator needs unhooking from the motion crank. The spring clip is then pulled off and kept safe for later use. The motion crank is pulled out the manifold, and kept safe for later refitting. The 3mm square brass rod is then visible, and needs pulling put the manifold. It'll be tight, as it'll have carbon sticking it in. The the rod is withdrawn, the flaps will fall out the manifold in turn. Once the rod is out, and all 4 flaps are removed, the motion crank can be refitted, and the clip put back in. There's no need to refit the vacuum actuator rod to the crank, as it'll no do anything now, but it looks OE if it's put back together properly. That's it, the flaps are out, and the manifold can be refitted, unless you're cleaning too, which I did while it's off. Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate. The family car. 2009 Rimini Red SE TD4.

There's no holes to seal, other than to put the motion crank back in the manifold. It's an easy job, and definitely not worth replacing the manifold for. There's the actuator assembly. The crank needs removing, by pulling out the spring clip and removing out the manifold. It's sealed with a simple O ring. It's also refitted once the flaps are out.
These are the flaps and long actuator rod, which is pulled from the manifold. I broke the flaps, to make removing the rod easier.
This the manifold without the flaps.

Just put the whole square rod out and leave it out. It serves no purpose, once there's no flaps to hold. Hyundai Ioniq 5 Ultimate. The family car.

Yeah, the rod is removed, just put it back in as it highlighted the bushing better...

I never removed the bushings, I assumed the manifold was simply drilled to take the rod. I suppose its a potential issue if bushings come adrift and enter the cylinder. I suspect they wouldn't do much damage though, unless they get trapped under a valve head, preventing it from closing.
