Rambling thoughts on LP and genset and such
93 Toyota Sea Breeze I noticed that the outside LP tank compartment is much smaller than the inside area. Which is the bottom of the closet in the bathroom. out side is 24X14X14, inside is 33X2...

I'm confused: "out side is 24X14X14, inside is 33X20X20." What does that mean? It's impossible for interior dimensions of ANY space to be larger than the exterior dimensions of that same space.
I'm also unclear on what/why you are proposing. Is it to replace the propane tank with a small generator? As RoyB pointed out, an external exhaust system would have to be installed, which is doable, but the bigger issue, IMO, is the resulting lack of propane. Fridge needs propane. Furnace needs propane. Water heater needs propane. Stove needs propane. Oven needs propane.
A motorhome with 110VAC generator, but no fridge, furnace, hot water, stove, or oven????????? I'm not sure I understand the goal here.
If instead, you are proposing to "move" the propane tank to your smaller generator compartment, and then install the generator in the old propane compartment...wow...lotsa work; re-routing propane lines, opening up that new compartment for open air ventilation (which I believe is legally required for a permanently mounted tank), installing electrical lines, installing/routing generator exhaust...
Again, I'm confused as to the goal here.
