Just wanting to know if a cosmetic great axe (ie a glammored one) will appear with a maul in hand. Combat and holding style seems to at least be consistent on Aasimar. Thanks in advance if anyone knows/ is willing to test.

From the Wiki:
The weapon cosmetic is only displayed on your character when you are wielding a weapon with the same combat style. The current combat styles are one-handed, two-handed, quarterstaff, great axe, crossbow, repeating crossbow, bow, rune arm, orb, and shield-only.

I'd have thought a maul was more likely to use the Great Axe animation than the two-handed animation used for swords, but don't know for sure. If noone can give you a definite answer, attacking a training dummy with a maul, great axe and greatsword should let you see which of the others the maul behaves more like.

maul definitely attacks like a g-axe on aasimar, but if its a different animation on another race it might not work.

On an elf, the fighting animations are about the same in terms of where the weapon goes but in terms of the stance:
Great Sword - hands together
Great Axe - hands apart
Maul - hands apart

That says Mauls & Great Axes use the same animation. 2-handed swords use a different one. The only other 2 handed animation is the Quarterstaff which is held differently from either.
I can't think that the animations used would vary from race to race (i.e. if Aasimar and Elf hold them the same way, no reason for anyone else not to).
