- many many years! since I was a kid
the oven mounted above the fridge freezer has a combined vent on the roof, but is vented also through the top fridge vent. The roof vent looks like a long narrow box with a pitched roof to stop rain getting in

Every van we have had the oven has had a roof vent, the same one they use on Truma fires the cap screws on.
The grey one is the oven vent.

I expect the warden was trying to be helpful, especially if the top part is missing as it means rain can get in and rust out your cooker. Perhaps he is warning you there is a cover fitted by the previous owner to stop rain and snow blowing in during bad winter weather. It is essential to remove that kind of cover before using the oven as could, although unlikely, cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
