That is some janky construction going on there.
Do not remove anything until you get a professional in there to check it out. That blockwork seems to be supported by the "framing," but it isn't constructed appropriately, as far as I can tell from the pics.
Hire a contractor to check it out, it'll be worth the very little you will pay, and could save you a ton in repairs later.

Definitely put some insulation in there. It looks like there's some now, but got pushed aside during installation, and was never replaced.

a set up with pump jacks wouldn't be terribly expensive.
