1. the sentence is unfinished, "euh" at the end means that PFN missed the word and did not bother to complete it later.

Whilst I don't necessarily disagree with the thrust of the rest of your post, I actually parsed this as:

"il est où, hein?"

They would sound very similar.

(Caveat: I am not a native speaker, but have been listening to French from an early age, as my father taught it, and was once fluent in it myself.)
