I may try to find some very small screen to cover the motor's hole so that the fan can still pull in air. The gearing is so low that the motor never gets hot, so I may just drill a drain hole in the bottom of the motor and use foil tape to cover the holes. And use some decent waterproof grease on the bushings. I have a few spare motors and do not care if they don't last...
