He wasn't a main character na. He's only mentioned in Arjun's vijay yatra after he war. And as for Manipur remaining neutral, that agreement was made way back around Arjun's marriage to Chitrangada.
The main condition for that marriage was, Arjun's kid wouldn't have a place in the Pandava succession line, and instead would be treated as Manipur's native prince and then King. And, that Manipur would never participate in the Kuru politics (whether P or K).
And Vidur wasn't a warrior, he wouldn't have fought anyway. 😆
And by chance, if Parikshit hadn't survived, they might have had to break this pact and handover Hastinapur+IP+whatever-kingdoms over to Babhruvahana (read: Manipur) just for the blood-relations sake.
