I dont think its an auto push here but im horrible at these situations. You cant raise to 450ish because if he pushes you cant fold so you might as well have pushed in the first place. Blinds are not huge so calling and seeing a flop might not be horrible (?)

This is a push because BB only has 7BB and you can push wide here (unless BB is very loose)because BB does not want to call much because he risks being knocked out. I would guess you can push about 65% here and fold everything else to avoid the situation of limping and him pushing.

the worst thing that can happen is that you lose 985 chips and be even with the other two shorties. I don't like the fold, and completing is stupid because you're OOP with a weak hand.

There's pretty much no hand range he can call with where you shouldn't push. The tighter he calls, the more often you win the blinds. The looser he calls, the better your hand does at showdown.

In general, any king is an open-push from the SB against most opponents in most situations.
