Whyte 603 (2017) with a FSA No.10 headset. All I can find out is thats its for 49/50 OD headtubes. I know on my older Voodoo I could run an external headset cup and fit tapered forks, can the same be done here? If not, do better 1+1/8th forks still exist new?

is it 44mm internal (I think the no. 10 is for 44mm internal), in that case its easy to fit tapered forks. Just need a new bottom bearing like a hope H

Nukeproof make an external cup version too for 44mm headtube and 1.5” steerer (at the bottom)

Option EX44-40 - B5

The only thing you need to be sure of is your headtube being deep enough to allow the cup to be inserted incase it taperes out from 44mm inside.
