I’d take a trip to the local septic permitting agency and see if I could get copies of the permit and approved septic system design/as-built site plans. The inspector will probably be able to tell you if you need it or not.
It might be a vent for the leach field although that’s not common where I’m from. I guess it could also be a marker for a distribution box or some other system component.
Sure, that can happen if there actually is a problem. But, I’m failing to see a problem here that could become expensive. This person has a functional septic system and they’re trying to find out what this pipe is and whether it’s important for the function of their system. Getting plans and talking to city/county staff is pretty routine for stuff like this.
