   Inside there is no matzeivah, only sort of a low structure over the actual kever and a candle box. The Chernobyl-Skvere custom seems to be like this. Would anyone know the reason behind it.

   Inside the Ohel there would be a hollow box (one Tefach) so that the Tumah is not Bokaas V’Oleh. A Matzeiva would of course be solid. In visiting inside the Ohel of the Zaddik, a person would not become Tamei thereby due to the hollow box.
