This is likely a barrel type key.
It is used to open a bay on the left rear that has the air conditioning radiator and the hydraulic pump and reservoir. I think it also opens the back grill on some models.

Ok, definately not a barrel key. You could replace this key with the proper size Allen wrench .

I do not have a key like that for my Scepter. Does the Allen fit the entry door studs or the front mirror adjustment screws?

It may be horrible but for sure it's an allen wrench not a barrel key, at least to my eyes.

The original owner had a SMI Air Force One. Could they have anything to do with that?

Think you two have nailed it! The only writing on the keys are ' keep out of reach of children' stuff. Normal for locking freezer keys!
Now, where did he hide that beer fridge ??
