Except there is no wind in a wind motor; it's a vacuum. It Sucks! To avoid confusion call it the roll motor.

The verb would be a long 'i' as in "WIND the clock". The noun would be a short 'i' as in "a strong northern WIND". I would suspect that your usage would be the noun since moving air is used to actuate the player mechanism and the motor would be used to create the air flow.
