To my knowledge, KMC doesn't a pin for closure as does Shimano. KMC chains take connecting links for the job.

Well, here is the story. Stupid me cut the new chain a couple links too short. So do if I use the quick links, I will have 3 in my chain. Is this a good idea?

But a question. You should only end up with two. the original, and the one to splice the extension on. Why the third?

You're right, two. I mistyped the three. Thank you for the help.
