There's no way in hell that they could use any stuff from Silmarillion. It's totally different timeline.
I can't remember any appendix of the Hobbit though. May have to check the book (we have them all in the shelve) and see what's in it.

The Lord of the Rings (not the Hobbit) has a huge section for appendices in the later releases of the book, I believe these are what Ruz speaks of. My particular version has:

Annals of the Kings and Rulers
The Tale of Years
Family Tree
Calendar
Writing and Spelling
Languages and People

All of that comprises the last ~20% of the book. It is substantial material.

It was 3 parts since the release.

Not exactly correct, the novel was released in three parts, only months apart. But it is, in fact a single novel, this is an excerpt from my book explaining that:

"...The Lord of the Rings is often erroneously called a trilogy, when it is in fact, a single novel, consisting of six books plus appendices, sometimes published in three volumes."
