I need to find what this connector is called and where to order one so I can plug my parts cooling fan into the mother board. Here are pix of the connector for the other fans.

LOL. I bought them and waited three weeks for them to arrive. Then had to wait another three weeks for the right ones to arrive.

Many thanks for the link, that looks like the right one.

It also occurred to me to ask the seller of the original kit to sell me an extra fan that would have the same connector. Waiting to hear back from them. They have a warehouse in California and ship quickly.

My friend who is an electrician suggested splicing the part cooling fan into the wires of the other fan to run two fans from one motherboard port. Would this work?

Yes it will. But you've got 12v output on the power supply get some servo wire and a switch and take the feed off there.
