I imagine no permit on the addition.

That's not a working space violation any more, that's plain old lack of any common sense!

Is the clearance issue really an issue? Some food for thought.
In the 1953 NEC the minimum horizontal working space clearance is given as 1-1/2 feet, measured from the live parts to a not grounded or live surface.
In the 1975 NEC, the same conditions under 600 volts was 2-1/2 feet.
It wasn't until the 1978 Edition of the NEC that it was increased to 3 feet.

Don't know... to me it rather looks like 1 foot and not 1 1/2 but the picture might be deceiving.
As for the age of the addition... the 5 panel door on the addition looks older than the main house, so they might have used scrounged parts... no idea.
