Bit awkward to use as a way to alert that the fan is on....

Could you mount a simple batten holder along side the fan and wire it across the motor terminals? Not as neat as a small fitted indicator admittedly but more visible

that would work!

The indicator (assuming it's one such as has been linked) will have two wires coming from it. These, as said above, need to connect across the motor in the fan. This should also have two connections and which way round does not matter. Easiest way to do this is post a photo of the fan with top removed and try to show the wiring. If your friend has a soldering iron he will probably also be able to guide you on what to do.

here is the fan without the cover on. any chance of connecting an LED light into that?

Plenty of room on that right hand side.

i don't mean room, i mean where do i connect this (link below) to it. i don't know which wires are the motors. i can see the power supply cables to the fan, the white one. but i don't know about the other connections. where do i connect the LED light connections on the photo?

The black wires, usually not polarity sensitive. Blue ones are for the pull cord
