What I mean is should the under folder pivot mechanism just fit into the pressed indentations and holes in the receiver, or should there be a solid metal insert that fits inside? (as on a Polish underfolder)

The ones I have seen do but I would say it is not necessary having built UFs.

Its my understanding that the Chinese UF did not have a rear trunion.

On a Chinese stamped receiver UF receiver, the thicker wall receiver supports the UF axle and other UF parts. The embosses in the receiver provided added strength. There is a rear block, but it sits behind the UF parts and is there to hold the back end of the recoil spring assembly and to provide a closed back end to the receiver.

That's what I remember, thanks for reminding me.  It just has the cap or block but nothing that supports the UF pin.
