Old house built in the lat 60's has these shitty rectangular fans in the bathroom with lights, problem is I can't seem to find anything that would fit the holes here
They are about 16x9" and most stuff I can find is square or a wonky kind of almost rectangular but not quite shape
Should I just get a square fan light and patch around it or what?

It is likely that the this is only attached to a joist on one side. You could easily expand the hole on the side that is just drywall to fit a square fan. Or, as you suggested, get a fan that fit inside the original hole and patch any part it didn't fill.

You could run a duct from the hole to a fan mounted above it but you'd have to build an enclosure up there. My only concern with fitting one in that hole is that it may be too small. But it's worked this long so maybe not, idk.

Get yourself a nice Heuristically programmed ALgorithmic computer. I would recommend the 9000 series. They never make a mistake, or so I've heard.

i wish my bathroom had a fan, I gotta leave the door open when I shower or else the entire room condensates
