A curve has equation \(y = (kx - 3)^{-1} + (kx - 3)\), where \(k\) is a non-zero constant.

(i) Find the \(x\)-coordinates of the stationary points in terms of \(k\), and determine the nature of each stationary point, justifying your answers.

(ii) The diagram shows part of the curve for the case when \(k = 1\). Showing all necessary working, find the volume obtained when the region between the curve, the \(x\)-axis, the \(y\)-axis and the line \(x = 2\), shown shaded in the diagram, is rotated through 360° about the \(x\)-axis.
