Kingsley isn't the Mandarin. Neither was Killian. Going by the Marvel Shorts, there is indeed another one. I'm curious to learn more about him, but no I don't want him to be the villain either.
No, Kingsley got plastic surgery, but there is no suggestion that Killian knows what The real Mandarin looks like or even that he is real. The plastic surgery was to make Kingsley look like a market-tested amalgam of the Ultimate Terrorist.
If the real Mandarin is based on the comic version, he likely doesn't look anything like Kingsley, as he is a tall, athletic martial artist.
