(I also very strongly suspect that air from around the outside of the motor is not what is is actually expelled out into the hose; but will let others verify that)
You'd be wrong about that.
This is the resmed "motor", the air flows in the opening in one end, around the motor, and out the other:

Interesting little motor, three phase, VFD from the controller board. very low inertia, and dual turbines inside the housing, with all those flow quietening vanes on the output.
