You could first split the items by type into separate, intermediate queues and then set each Send To Port according to the type it will receive.

If you want to do this in a single Send To Port option you will have to manually edit the code. Starting from the default "By Percentage" option, you can simply wrap that code in an if-condition that checks the item's type.

Since all items of type 2 should go to port 1, you just return 1 in that case.
