Lost my only I-Key! :(

Does anybody know or can confirm that by putting the key in the lower left key slot in the car recharges the key fob batt?

At least you found your key. Bet that was a major relief.

Negative. There is no charging circuit in the fob, the battery in the fob is single use only. Sticking the fob in the fobgina port does allow it to operate should the battery go dead. There is a small induction coil which provides temporary power to the fob without point to point contact.
