Kuhel is a German surname. Check this: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MJC3-CGF
It’s Slovenian. Check this:

I ask for a Bablah opinion.
Why? Kuhel sounds Slovenian, and the family is identified as Slovenian on the census (the 1920 one had their language as Austrian and then corrected to German, since it was done to the entire page, it was probably corrected in their absence).
That is interesting. So we mantain Slovenian.
