Have you tried the find command manually? I get the same result as
above if I try the commited find command. You can't both quote *and*
escape.

Yes, but currently you pass 'python\*' - with single quotes and
backslash. That will only match the litteral string. Also remember
that bash uses the literal string when single quotes are used, but
expands the string when double quotes are used. Have you tried
"python*"?
