It's being charged/maintained 24/7 by the generator controller using
AC line power. It doesn't need the generator running to charge it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but, I think the battery is *only* charged
by the generator (not by line voltage).

To only charge it with the battery would be a bad design. It's
typically charged by both AC and the generator, if the generator is
running.



I don't see a ~120V to ~14V inverter anywhere.

As I said before, it's part of the control electronics. If you're
that interested, go find a schematic or read the repair/operation
manual.
