One of the many nice things I like about my GMC RTS is that it came with a compartment above the engine that held the "air handler" (the heating and air conditioning unit).  I removed the air handler and put a 3 clyinder Isuzu 8Kw generator in a sound box in it's place.  I don't like Onans because of the electronics.  My generator is all mechanical and easy to work on.

Not sure if it the best way to go but instead of a rolling tray I mounted my genny on a fixed tray that I made with provisions for a set of forklift forks to remove the genny completely. My reasoning was that if it is coming out if will be coming out for a major reason and will need to be removed anyway.

As far as the exhaust, one of my customers had the local Midas make up a sectional exhaust stack that fits together and is retained via a small belt loop kind of connection at the top of his coach and the same kind of slip fit as the rest of the pieces onto the tailpipe.
