I don’t know why, but your cat is giving strong Ralph Wiggum energy
I think it’s how the hairs that stick out clump into strands

He's missing the super long ear hair tufts. Here's my guy for comparison

Uhh that's not a cat, that's the guy who played Hellboy
Lol, maybe you already knew, but there is/was a subreddit called "RonPerlmanCats"

Could be a mixed-breed? I'm no expert, but things like that do happen.
Either way, what an interesting and special little genetic anomaly you've found. I had a cat whose belly -- and only her belly -- was covered in fine curls. Straight everywhere else. Never seen anything like it before or since.
I’d say no, due to the lack of a mane
Probably a domestic longhair. Maine Coons have really distinctive heavy snouts, they're dramatically huge, like the size of a bobcat, and they've got this dense 3 layer coat that forms a lion-like mane.
If it's just some little dude that wandered up out of the world in the top 50th percentile of fluffiness, what you've got there is a domestic longhair. Probably introduce him to brushing while he's young because mats aren't fun, otherwise same operator's manual as a shorthair. Obligate carnivore diet, scatching post and sandbox, gentle scritches behind the ears, lots of naps, sunny windowsill for basking.
