Since you are in California and assuming the car has been here awhile, I wonder if someone has tried to either duplicate the taxicab PCV system or perhaps the car was one caught up in the clean air laws of the 60s and 70s where DMV required a bunch of pollution stuff added -- even on old cars -- before they could be transferred or sometimes even reregistered.

Here is a thread with a couple of photos showing something similar and a bit of commentary from some of those having history with the pollution control add-ons.https://packardinfo.com/xoops/html/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=92928#forumpost92928
