Yeah ive got the same problem. leave the car for a week or so and the battery dies. ive gone through two batteries in as many months. my alternator is fine and i dont have an alarm or immobiliser or anything that would draw power while the car is off. just cant work it out.

well i honestly have never seen one. you could probably get one custom made or modified but why keep the factory indicators?

prbly ought to get that hole fixed anyway, you could be loosing precious exhaust pressure to spool up the turbo (if u have one) not that it would be making a huge difference. lol.

try blocking the hole up with something (like tinfoil) then see wot happens?

could be a tappet come loose somehow. i doubt its because theyre not getting oil cuz theyd be completely buggered by now. it could be that leak in the manifold too. my mate had a suzuki sierra which had a bit of a gap between the manifold and the head at one end of the manifold and that sounded kinda the same. the only problem with that is you should probably be able to smell fumes while youve got ur head under the bonnet when the engine is running. its either that or something else has come loose inside the motor. prbly a good idea not to drive it. best to get it checked out straight away.

even if the alternator is buggered ur ignition lights should still come on cuz they get power from the battery. id say that if ur ignition lights dont come on but everything else does then it could be the ecu. whatever happend to ur car might have messed with the ecu or completely buggered it. u should take it to an auto elec that specializes in jap ecus.
