How about these:

rpm -qa '*-release'
cat /etc/yum.conf

I would like to know how you managed to install CentOS without having the centos-release package installed.

I also wonder about 7.3.10.0-514.el7.x86_64. It does not look like a standard CentOS kernel version. Any explanation for that?

Do you get lots of output from rpm -qa or does it give an error message?
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

I think was hand copied not cut and pasted and the 7 got put in by mistake. The date on that does correspond with the one from the base 7.3 kernel package.

In this case TrevorH is likely interested in the output of rpm -qa without any other parameters.

Related to this, have there been any incidents with the server recently? Storage issues, or package database issues that have required some sort of maintenance?

Yes, but we would still need to know why your RPM database does not seem to have centos-release installed. At this point, the following information may help:

rpm -qa
ls -ld /etc/httpd/logs
systemctl restart sshd.service
(this will likely output "Job for sshd.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status sshd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details", but is needed for the following command)
grep sshd /var/log/messages
