This was one of the characters in the movie according to the Starlog journalist (James Van Hise) who did the Blade Runner sneak preview article while the film was still in post-production.

"There are also other touches in the film which are not derived from the book. For instance, there is an elderly elevator operator who looks to be about 150 and who wears an apparatus consisting of tubes feeding from his mouth to his intentines. "

That's it. It has to be! The man probably thought Chew's workshop was an elevator.
