Open up SDK for Half Life 2, and click prefabs.
Then select Portal Prefabs.
Then select Portal Prefabs.
Looks like prefabs for an old portal, before they made it Apeture Science like.
What do you think?

I think that's exactly what it is. I heard in the Portal commentary that Portal used to have a Half-Life 2 look and this is it, great find. There is a lot of detailed brushwork that was probably made by the level designers as temporary models before the modellers made models for Portal. This is a look into an early iteration of the game left unintentionally by Valve.
