I saw the MacRumors' render that included a MagSafe port on the 2021 MacBook Pros, but that didn't seem correct. Where is the MagSafe port supposed to be according to the leaked schematics? Has the image been published? I could not find it.

Also, the schematics state that MagSafe supports "Whamola". This post from @RobbieTT suggests that means Ethernet. Is that correct? If so, that would mean an Ethernet port on the power brick, via MagSafe. Could that support 10 GigE too? I could find no reference to "Whamola" anywhere, except as an expletive. :p

I know the 24" iMac doesn't have a 10 GigE option but I wouldn't have expected it to have that. The machines I would expect to get 10 GigE are the Mac mini, higher end iMac (29"-30"), Mac Pro, and MacBook Pro (esp. the 16" MBP but likely also the 14" MBP as well).
 
To what does that "Whamola" refer, specifically? I can't find any reference to that. Google has failed me.
