Asus B360M - i3 9100F - RX 550 - Sabrent Rocket - Fenvi T919 - Ventura 13.3.1
I did the upgrade using a mix of the classic Dortania guide + Open Core Auxiliary Tools (OCAT) which is super useful to be honest.

No schema(s, in description)
Your config.plist don't match with your OC version. Use OpenCoreAuxiliaryTool or ProperTree to update oc and plist.

What did I do wrong?
Open the config in ProperTree (https://github.com/corpnewt/ProperTree) and do a clean snapshot (CMD-SHIFT-R). This will put all of the kexts in the right order.

Open your config.plist using ProperTree.

Is there someone who can tell me what I need for my efi file
NO. Prebuilts are a bad way to start. They are not updated and aren't configured to your specific needs. Make your own EFI and also don't use OCAT, use ProperTree which can do OC specific things like OC (clean) snapshots.

reboot
You need to mount your EFI partition (find a tool online or use command line). In it you should find "EFI/OC/config.plist". Open the file with Propertree or another plist editor and make the changes.

If anything, keep .contentFlavour files removed and try updating your config.plist using ProperTree or some other plist editor which just makes it easier to read. Sorry I couldn't be of much help but its the best I've got right now haha.
