In the side closest to the house, about 6 to 10 inches below the top of the tank, should have an elbow pointing down which may clog and should have a small access hole or plate above it in the top of the tank. Does that help?
An inlet baffle is part of a septic system. It is the point at which wastewater leaves the home and goes into the septic tank.
There is a 4" hole for the inlet near the top of every properly made septic tank. You connect the drain to this by gluing if it's a plastic pipe or by a 'Robar' joint if it's a cast iron pipe.
inlet will be 100mm osma type collar to receive 100mm plastic pipe or on a commercial installation may be larger
The septic tank, is a standard concrete tank, should last forever. It's just a big concrete box with an inlet and outlet pipe that holds waste. You will have to have it pumped to remove solids when it gets full, but you shouldn't ever have to replace the tank.
Unplug the pipe between house and septic tank first. Get flow of septic into the tank.
Yes, it should. If the liquid level in the first settling tank has risen above the inlet, then that tank's outlet to the field or secondary tank has become plugged. Look into the end of the tank furthest away from house and see if you can see the outlet pipe and what is plugging it. Further away from this outlet, the pipe will enter a distribution box, try to find this and if water is not flowing into it, 'snake' it towards the tank.
In your home septic tank.
Not if home is tied into public sewer, septic tank not needed.
The sewage pipe from the home to the tank must drop from the horizontal between 1 in 80 and 1 in 40 to ensure the water and solids stay together in transit.

There is no single vent pipe on a septic and well. ( -Or if there is, someone has made a colossal and dangerous error. ) - If the vent on your septic is clogged, then your tank is way past it's time to be pumped out, and that MUST happen before you clean the vent.
I believe they pipe it out into a septic tank or into a regular sewer system.
