We do offer towed car braking systems designed to work with motorhome air brakes. The SMI Air Force One # SM99243 is a great example and this toad braking system and others appear on the linked page.
The 2012 Winnebago Itasca M-32H Class A motorhome is built on a Ford F-53 chassis which has hydraulic disc brakes as standard equipment. I confirmed with Winnebago that air brakes were not a factory option for the 2012 Itasca Suncruiser M-32H.
Converting an F-53 chassis RV to air brakes would have been a costly and complex undertaking for the previous owner so I am wondering if the air pump and fitting you refer to is for something other than an air brake setup for a towed car. Perhaps the air pump was installed to provide a source for compressed air for tire inflation.
