I can not see efi folder because it is hidden?

It should not be hidden on your installer USB.
The guide recommends MBR, two partitions. The EFI/Clover is on the "CLOVER EFI" partition which will be automatically mounted.

See guide: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/guide-booting-the-os-x-installer-on-laptops-with-clover.148093/

If you used GPT, single partition, it is still possible to mount the EFI on that USB, but you must use diskutil. It is covered in the FAQ.
 
Am i recreate MBR instead of GPT?

It is your choice. MBR, 2-partition is easier to deal with because the "CLOVER EFI" partition is automatically mounted when you plug the USB in.

The only advantage of GPT for the USB installer is:
- works on computers that won't boot UEFI from an MBR USB (rare)
- useful if you need more than 3 partitions (I have a single 128GB USB installer with six installers: Sierra, El Capitan, Yosemite, Mavericks, Mountain Lion, Lion, and Snow Leopard).
 
How can use this:

invalid ig-platform-id (0x12345678
 
I try again MBR method,
I set bios for legacy but not clover install screen coming.
