Definitely a variation on the initial set of given digits, but it seems to have multiple solution possibilities.

Code:

+-------+-------+-------+
| 5 1 . | . 9 . | . 3 8 |
| 4 . . | . 5 . | . . 6 |
| . . . | 1 . 3 | . . . |
+-------+-------+-------+
| . 7 . | 8 1 5 | . 4 . |
| 2 9 . | 6 . 4 | . 8 1 |
| . 4 . | 3 2 9 | . 7 . |
+-------+-------+-------+
| . . . | 9 . 2 | . . . |
| 8 . . | . 3 . | . . 9 |
| 9 5 . | . 8 . | . 6 3 |
+-------+-------+-------+

[Edited: I awoke in the middle of the night and worked on this puzzle. It is obvious that I was still asleep. I deleted solution]

one of {1,3,7} must be true in the UR29 cells r23c38. in order to break up the UR...

(3)r2c3 - (3)r2c2 = (3)r7c2 - (3=7)r7c1

(7)r2c3 - (7)r89c3 = (7)r7c1
||
(1)r2c8 - (1=2)r8c8 - (2=6)r8c2 - (6=3)r7c2 - (3=7)r7c1

all prove 7 can't exist in r7c9 and solves the puzzle.

After a day of rest and a good nights sleep, I tried this puzzle again. Hopefully my solution is not totally ridiculous like the original post. Embarassed Embarassed

kite on 2 with hinge in box1, which sets up a
type 1 UR29 in r23c38, which sets up a
xy-wing 3-67 with vertex in r2c3.
