It's difficult for me to tell (especially because I've never actually used one of those ports), but maybe if you have a really thin pair of tweezers like the ones in ifixit kits, you could get the flap to close?

pins.  2 of them,  Can be a sewing needs or a pin for a shirt.  find a spot on either side as far down as you can away from the hinge side.  When you are confident you have a good spot on either side then pry and wiggle it until it gets back far enough

I broke the hinge (the black flap broke off the metal spring hinge - the spring hinge was in the wrong spot on one side - both were both too deep) i dont know where the flap went, it just kind of disappeared.  But now i can at least plug it in. Thanks. Getting a new xbox soon enough anyways.

It is just to keep things out of there.  If you keep it plugged in then it does the same thing
