Whilst coming home with a 40k Porsche at the same time!
Its hard to break the status quo.
If you're a passive person in particularly and things are "ticking along" it can take a lot to mentally want to rock the boat.
The fact that she's been in this 10 years + and if this has been a theme in the relationship the entire time I can't see what would make her
1) want to change
2) act on that
If the first one isn't present in her mind the 2nd one isn't even on the radar. Even the first one ticked isn't often enough. How often do people stay in dead relationships because it's easy?
Loads
That's why she needs to check her own credit files for loans/finance etc. that he may have taken out in her name.
It might actually be that it is she who unknowingly owns a 40k Porsche!

The mess will never be sorted unless one or both of them changes their attitude towards the nature of the relationship.
People asking 'How could she let this happen?' are making a reasonable enquiry, because it's hard to know what practical advice could help resolve the situation without knowing how it developed in the first place.

How would she know if this has been secured say against the house? I mean as far as I know it's not possible becuase his name is not on anything, but it wouldn't surprise me if he tried.

There'd be a charge against it on the publicly accessible Land Registry. About a ten to twenty quid fee to download the records from memory.

Have made that recommendation immediately.

But is that even possible when his name is not on anything?

In theory, no, but he might be able to convince the Land Registry to change things, it's been done before. In fact there was a spate of people buying houses from sellers who later turned out not to own them. Conveyancers can be sloppy, even bent, the number of solicitors charged with fraud in the UK these days is frightening. Plus the LR is far from infallible.
Unlikely but possible would be my take. It will take you 30 minutes or less to get the documents. Who has the actual paper form deeds?
Property deeds: What are they and how should I look after them?
When buying property there’s some important paperwork to prove you own it. This guide explains what these documents are, what they mean, & how to keep them safe

Caveat, like with most government sites, there are a plethora of likely sounding web sites that add their cut on to get the info for you, go direct:
HM Land Registry
We register the ownership of land and property in England and Wales. HM Land Registry is a non-ministerial department.

Dunno about that, but in light of everything else, she certainky needs to check her credit files ASAP.
It's unlikely, car loans are typically unsecured.

Surprises me considering how many other loans he has. But then his other outgoings are apparently zero!
Absolutely - I had no problem paying for everything when the kids were younger and the other half was "working" full time looking after them, but now one is in school and the other is in nursery full time, she's a) expected to work, and b) expected to contribute her fair share. Of course since she's a decent human being it wasn't even a conversation we needed to have (other than discussing the right time for it with regards to logistics & childcare costs).

My only question remains: Now the cat is out the bag, what is your sister going to do?
How did she even get in this bizarre situation. This is an absolute blatant "I don't really want to be married" from him.
Practical: I would propose a separation if he is unwilling to discuss and be open about finances quite frankly. Or being completely blunt: An ultimatium of pay X amount per month/week by X date, or a formal separation will be put in process.
I would make it CRYSTAL CLEAR that this is about money, and dishonesty. It has zero to do with love as such. If person is willing to come to the table and provide the money as agreed, then no-separation will occur.
