Gmsh never translates between CAD kernels: so if you build your model with the 
built-in kernel, you won't be able to "export" it as as an OpenCASCADE model.

What you could do is to add "SetFactory("OpenCASCADE")" at the beginning of 
your old script, and see if your geometry can get generated directly as an 
OpenCASCADE model. (You might have to change a few things.) Then you could 
export as .brep or .step.
