Are you sure the two things are related? The /usr/bin/patch program is
generally used to apply the contents of a diff file to one of the files that
were compared to create it (this is from memory so there's probably some subtle
things here I'm not getting right). Are you sure the patch-install script is
the script used to patch the kernel? Which operation are you looking to do?

As you've suggested, patch should be in /usr/bin and you should find it with
whereis patch. Can you do "man patch" and get the docfile?
