It's here:

https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-ansible-collection/blob/master/roles/engine_setup/tasks/install_packages.yml

So - it tries to install 'ovirt-engine'.

This is ran inside the engine VM, not on the host.

Not sure what exactly you ask here.

(On some somewhat lagging-behind machine: )

# rpm -ql ovirt-engine-appliance
/etc/ovirt-hosted-engine/10-appliance.conf
/usr/share/doc/ovirt-engine-appliance
/usr/share/doc/ovirt-engine-appliance/ovirt-engine-appliance-manifest-rpm
/usr/share/ovirt-engine-appliance
/usr/share/ovirt-engine-appliance/ovirt-engine-appliance-4.5-20220523064055.1.el8.ova

So e.g. in this case, I could have responded, to the prompt asking
which image to use,
'/usr/share/ovirt-engine-appliance/ovirt-engine-appliance-4.5-20220523064055.1.el8.ova'.

If you want to make the deploy process not try to install/update
packages inside the engine VM, but only use whatever that's inside the
appliance image, you can try:

# hosted-engine --deploy --ansible-extra-vars=he_offline_deployment=true
