Can someone please tell me what the last 2 moldings on the right are for?

I think the ring is scrap but the part in the middle is your prop spinner

Thanks. The prop spinner is the right size and shape to connect the balsa wood prop blades to. The hex-shape to the left of it is still a mystery though.

Is it possibly part of the engine crank case? I was looking at Rhyleo's Hellcat this morning, and we couldn't work out what the ring around the spinner was for. I guess it's just part of the vacuum forming process.

the hex shape is the back side of spinner I think. Novice Builder will post a photo of leftover plastic from a Guillows B-17 build, it has the same extra rings

If it's like most Guillow kits, the two hex-shaped pieces are glued together to form the prop hub. The prop blades fit into three sides of the hub.
