Design methodology
So I first decided that I was going to go back to the symmetrical-bolt mounting of the 6028 fans, and with the hotend holder now entirely made of metal, it can also help with heat dissipation. I then noticed that there'd be more space above than below the cooling 6028 so I pointed it upwards.
Then, similar to how I'd go about solving a maze, I started thinking up ideas on how the duct would start and end. I knew that the rear of the Coaxial8or was the most suitable location for the duct output. It also looked like a revolve would be beneficial to cool from multiple directions. I gladly found out that Fusion supports lofting from such a curved face:
I went on to refine the geometry so that it was at least 3mm or so from anything else and didn't stick out beyond the bottom wheel bolt:
