Find the first six characters of the device's serial number on the "Device Info" panel which is a part of the "Settings" menu.
Using those six characters and this table:

Learn the nickname of your model.
You need that information without guessing, guessing can be hazardous to your Kindle and make it impossible to give your questions here a correct answer.

Now go to NiLuJe's snapshots thread:

Read the top post, it tells you how to deal with xz compressed archives depending on what PC, OS you have.

Scroll down in that top post to the KUAL entry in the KUAL section.
Download it, open the archive, read and follow the included directions.

Now, when you bring up the KUAL menu, look at the bottom most line on the screen.
It will tell you what your device's nickname is and what version of KUAL is running.

That is: Both of your questions are answered for now and forever.
