Went I went up there to open it, I found this.
Is sealed under plywood and under the cross beams that go over the elevated living room. There is a hole cut out and a vent apparently coming out of there and going down tying into the ceiling somewhere in the hall of my house. I’m so confused.

For Heatilator fireplace, that's looks to be an air inlet. They use it to draft attic air, to keep from taking heated air from the house. That inlet is usually in the attic. A cap or grill keeps pests from getting into the hose, causing problems.
