So I bought a house with an unfinished bathroom and I'm now at adding a toilet and I'm seeing a previous job that makes no sense. I watch many videos and I can see I might be dealing with an old cast-iron flange with cement all over it. Looking for advice on how to remove and replace. Here is pictures for what I'm dealing with.

Not sure what you are dealing with, because, I see what appears to be FOUR bolts, but the toilet should only have two.

not to mention but the bolts look way to wide spaced for flange slots.
also, why bolts top and bottom?

look down inside with a GOOD pencil flashlight and see if there is a trap
