1) whether this PSU 'peripheral' cord with molex-looking receptacles was appropriate for the case fan male molex adaptors; and
All of the molex connectors from the PSU will work with the fan

2) even if so, the fans would then be connected directly (via the molex adaptor for each fan wire) to the PSU, and not to the mobo - hence no front fan heat/speed detection (?)
Correct...the fan is just going to operate at full speed since the mobo is not controlling it.
