Does my roof have soffit ventilation and do I need to install baffles prior to blowing in insulation?

Question

Edit: As it turns out, my soffit vents are decorative only. I pried open the soffit in 2 different areas, and there is continuous solid wood behind it. How is the attic getting ventilated then?

Because I am rewiring my house, I had a contractor remove insulation from the attic. The contractor mostly left the insulation intact in the soffit areas. I am trying to establish two things:

1. Does my roof have soffit ventilation? If so, why were the batts stuffed all the way inside the soffit?

2. Do I need to install soffit baffles? The clearance is extremely limited. In fact, I cannot do it from inside the attic. I could not even insert the baffle in the cavity, much less put it in its place.

Answer 1

Some idiot did the insulation, should not be/not needed any insulation blocking the soffits.

Insulation only needed/wanted over the living sections of a house.

Baffles or some kind of stop, a piece of wood/tin nailed along the rafters at the floor, to prevent insulation blocking the soffits.
