What would be the cause of air coming from the engine while driving?

The engine running will cause air to come out of a running engine. The Internal combustion engine sucks in air, mixes it with fuel, ignites it, and then blows the resulting gasses out. Also the fan in front of the radiator moves alot of air. So unless you are coasting down a hill with the engine off, it's supposed to be blowing air while you are driving.
