Moreover $h$ may not be in $L^1(0,1).$ $f \in C(\mathbb{R}^N,\mathbb{R}^N)$ and $x \cdot y := (x_1y_1, x_2y_2, \cdots, x_Ny_N).$ Mainly motivated by the pioneering work of Man\'asevich-Mawhin [1], we derive a new integral operator of $(P_\lambda)$ given as \begin{equation*} T_{\lambda} (u)(t) = \begin{cases} \int_{0}^{t}\psi_{p}^{-1}(\alpha(\lambda h \cdot f(u))+\lambda \int_{s}^{\frac{1}{2}} h(r) \cdot f(u(r))dr)ds, & \textrm{$0\leq t\leq\frac{1}{2}$,}\\ \int_{t}^{1}\psi_{p}^{-1}(-\alpha(\lambda h \cdot f(u))+ \lambda \int_{\frac{1}{2}}^{s} h(r) \cdot f(u(r))dr)ds,& \textrm{$\frac{1}{2}\leq t\leq 1$}, \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $\alpha=\alpha(\lambda h \cdot f(u)) \in \mathbb{R}^{N}$ is the unique zero of the following integral equation $$\int_{0}^{\frac{1}{2}}\psi_{p}^{-1}\left(\alpha+\lambda \int_{s}^{\frac{1}{2}}h(r) \cdot f(u(r))dr\right)ds= \int_{\frac{1}{2}}^{1}\psi_{p}^{-1}\left(-\alpha+\int_{\frac{1}{2}}^{s}h(r) \cdot f(u(r))dr\right)ds.$$ This operator $T$ extends cases introduced by Man\'asevich-Mawhin [1] of $g\in L^1(0,1)$ and Agarwal-L\"u-O'Regan [2] of $g\ge 0$ to case of $g\notin L^1(0,1)$ and sign-changing. Second, we apply similar argument to the following $\varphi$-Laplacian systems; \begin{equation*}\tag*{$(P)$} \begin{cases} -{\Phi(u')}'= {h}(t)\cdot {f}({u}),\quad t\in (0,1),\\ {u}(0)= 0 = {u}(1), \end{cases} \end{equation*} where ${\Phi(u')}=(\varphi(u_1'),\cdots,\varphi(u_N'))$ with $\varphi:\mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ an odd increasing homeomorphism, \\ ${h}(t)=$ $(h_1(t),\cdots,h_N(t))$ with $h_i :(0,1) \to \mathbb{R_+}$, $h_i \not \equiv 0$ on any subinterval in $(0,1)$ and ${f(u)}=(f^{1}({u}),\cdots,f^{N}({u}))$ with $f^{i}: \mathbb{R}_+^N\to \mathbb{R_+}$. Under suitable assumption on $\varphi$ and a singularity condition on ${h}$, we introduce several existence results of positive solutions of problem $(P)$.\\ {\it References} \begin{itemize} \item[{[1]}] {\it R.
