should they suck in clean air or blow out the "dirty" air?

Always blow out the contaminated air, the blower sucks the air from the engine compartment into the wide open.

Blow out the dirty air. The "pick up" hose should be mounted in the lower part of the bilge but high enough to stay out of any water that might pool there.
