Hum... I'm unsure and my sea spider sense is tingling. My first impression would be an egg sack like those from Opisthobranchia that could explain the DNA in pouches, or maybe a small bryozoa. If is covered in bacteria it could explain the genetic analysis.
Another possibility would be some kind of crystals growing from sulfur and covered in bacteria.
We need and electronic microscope image here and hystological cuts stained with gram.

The average cell measured about 9,000 microns long, and the biggest was 20,000 microns — long enough to span the diameter of a penny." (from NYT, https://archive.ph/ET2tc https://archive.ph/ET2tc )
