No that's not what you said. You postulated that no attack on PH and a settlement with China would mean no US involvement. While that would have kept the US out for a while it by no means guarantees no US involvement in WWII. Indeed it probably only postpones it for 6 months or so at most.

China doubt it, no naval or air assets to launch an invasion.
When and if it suites them they can attack the Japanese land forces in China and Siberia.
There is also the Commonwealth. Who will have time to build up their strength and organize.

So Japan can and does deploy those 45 Divisions into the Soviet Union
No. Japan needs to leave quite a few in China and at least 1 or 2 in Korea. Plus keep some for defence vs the Common wealth. There is also the question of how many they can support in Siberia at least any distance from the coast.
