Question:

What would have happened if the goalie didn't go so far out when he celebrated, and on his way back to save the goal, the PK kicker blocked him out similar to a defender blocking out a forward while allowing the ball to roll to the goalie?

Kicker is just supposed to kick the ball then return to their team. Can't kick in a rebound or block out the keeper or anything like that.

Okay... let me complicate it up some. Let's say that the kicker was looking at the ball, saw that the ball was on it's way to go in, started celebrating (without looking at the goalie), and while in the process, happened to obstruct the goalie so he couldn't get there in time to save it?

What a stupid hypothetical

None of that happened

Keeper is a dumb arse

I understand none of that happened. I was wondering what the rules would say if that did happen. If you don't know, then that's fine.

In that hypothetical it would be a foul (impeding with contact) on the kicker and the ball is dead.
