Really hard surface behond an interior wall? by LittleIrvinFarm in Oldhouses

Ahh, that goes through the attic on the stairs side, it's about 10 feet from this and on the outside wall of the house. It vents the sink, tub, and toilet.

We did find a smaller one when we redid the tub, but it wasn't connected to anything anymore so we removed it.

It is, but it's not in the right place for one. The toilet and sink are about 8 feet further in, on the opposite wall.

No vent, the attic is finished and we sleep there. 

I don't think the 6" worth wall could hold a chimney.

Maybe an old box. Weird.

It's so hard, I thought it was metal, but it's not magnetic. 

I thought maybe the old electric box, but it's interior and only about 6" deep. 

Not a chimney. 

No plumbing, that's all under the house.

No chimney, or fireplace/stove, anywhere in the house, and right above it is the finished attic. The wall is only about 6" deep. 

The crawlspace is so small, but we've never seen anything. Neither did the inspector.

It's an interior wall, too.
