3. I loaded the .epub manually to my Kobo without using Calibre and it works just fine so the issue is either Calibre or the conversion to .kepub using KoboTouchExtended.

If you use kepubify's for calibre option, it will generate a .kepub file and calibre will change the extension to .kepub.epub when sending it to your Kobo.

I didn't use Calibre since I think the KoboTouchExtended plugin will always convert EPUBs itself. Also, I can't add the file as a separate format to Calibre since it ends in `.epub` so Calibre will replace my original (existing) EPUB file which I want to keep too.

As mentioned above, generate a .kepub using kepubify and set kepub above epub in the files to send to your Kobo. I do this with the few books I want in kepub but I am using the KoboTouch driver.

That is correct. OTOH, you mentioned that you had also tried the KoboTouch driver which will not convert to kepub.
OTOH, I am no longer going to respond in this thread. I finally looked at the book in your download link, it is a copyrighted book and a conversion from azw3 to epub using calibre's conversion. Sorry but that tells me that book is a pirated copy and as such, I'm outta here. I had originally thought that you had purchased the book, downloaded it and converted to ePub but turns out that was a vain hope.
