וְנִכַּפֵּר the root is KPR, the act is KAPAR. The initial NI is the personal pronoun ANIY, 'self', (similar to the French reflexive pronoun 'se', or the German 'sich') identifying the receiver of the action as the blood. In my opinion the inner -E- is also a personal pronoun, a contracted היא HIY, also for the blood. The letter K is with a dagesh, as expected after a xiriq. Some would say that this dagesh is to mark a "missing" T of the hitpael form נִתכַּפֵּר The dagesh in the P is as expected after a patax.
