I ended up watching that whole video.

What is it about “old” dudes talking about what they’re doing that is so soothing

That'd be a kithin-ade, then.

Often owner’s manuals will list all the parts included or available with the manual. If you didn’t get a manual try looking up the model number online or on the Kitchen Aid website for an electronic version.

Does it make ice? It looks like a vent for something, ice or cold air maybe?

Yeah, could it be a nozzle that fits over the output of the ice dispenser - so the cubes go into the glass not on the floor?

Is there any kind of part number stamped into the plastic somewhere?

Could this be a panametric fan?
