Old E6 film, exposed will have POOR latent image stability and can go clear.
If exposed and it sat around for years, you will never see black, but faded
blue black if you are lucky. If it was exposed and then subject to extreme
temp, anything is possible. If the edges are clear, no frame numbers the
film itself is off in my experience. A good test to do is run a known good
film stock with the great unknown.

Hmm, if the film was unexposed it should come out as all black with the
yellow frame numbers and film type on the top and bottom "margins". This
gets exposed onto the film by the manufacturer.
And you can certainly feel if the emulsion/gelatin came off during
development.
If it is all clear (with the emulsion still present) then your chemistry
was off...
This can happen - E6 chemistry ages quickly even in the sealed
containers. I always do a test development if I am not sure.
