My radical thought for the day is that for a recipe scaled to 200 grams of flour it would require ~7.8 grams of combined B&W Pepper (alone) whereby to match the heat level of Dustin's recipe as seen on Glen And Friends Cooking (via youtube).
Per Wikipedia pure Piperine has 100,000 Scoville "Equivalents" of heat. The average % Piperine in White and Black Pepper is about 7.25% 0.0725 x 100,000 = 7,250 Scoville Equivalents. Cayenne Pepper has (on average) 40,000 Scoville Units of heat
Dustin used 4.5 grams of B&W Pepper plus 0.6 grams of Cayenne Pepper (when scaled to 200 grams of flour) 4.5 x 7,250 + 0.6 x 40,000 = 56,625 Scoville Unit Equivalents
56,625/7,250 ~= 7.8 grams of B&W Pepper (when used along with zero Cayenne Pepper)

The Scoville system is rather interesting. As I understand it, and as originally designed by Scoville, a standardized quantity of a variety of Pepper which contains capsaicin is dissolved into a standardized quantity of water. Then the quantity of water is continually doubled until a majority of testers can no longer taste the presence of the pepper in the water. Each doubling equals 1 Scoville Unit.
Some Pepper varieties measure as high as about 15 million Scoville Units.

One source rated Sweet Paprika as low as 100 and as high as 500 Scoville Units. But sweet Paprika from specifically the 'Alma' Pepper has 1,500 Scoville Units.
The mildest Chili Powder ranges from 1,000 to 2,000 Scovill Units.
Chili Powder and Chilli Powder are merely variant spellings. My spell checker flags 'chilli' as a misspelling and accepts 'chili' as a correct spelling. Search engines bark at chilli, but accept chili. Obviously chilli is merely a misspelling of chili, albeit that it is a common misspelling. If it appears spelled that way commercially it merely indicates that the mfg. didn't know (or care) as to how to properly spell it. With CHS being highly uneducated, I could easily see him referring to chili as chilli.
Chili Pepper refers to any Capsicum containing Pepper varietal.
Chili Powder refers to any varietal of Chili Pepper mixed with (typically) Cumin, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, and Salt.

Chile Powder appears to be a somewhat common variant spelling of Chili Powder.

The only difference is one letter. I agree.
Only magic would be in narrowing down the brand of Chili, CiLLi, Chillie, Chilie powder he used.

Or YOUR missing the Key ingredient to a Better Chicken ?
On 3 different KFC ingredient List when Chilli was listed it was Spelled Chilli when 98% of the World is using the Chili spelling ?
BUT only speculation or Key component.
The was a Old Member on the Forum I have read about Derrick Wilson who made reference about Chilli BUT I cannot locate the one writing he wrote regarding Chilli

Let me guess. A guy who assuredly doesn't know what the actual 11 original H&S are, just as for the rest of us (including you and I), notices that some spice company misspells Chili as Chilli and that this company's misspelled product has a unique ingredient within, and bingo, that is assuredly the secret missing ingredient. And he knows this with 100% certainty because CHS misspells Chili as Chilli.
