Locked out of 14 year old YouTube channel because tied to Hotmail.com email

I have a 14 year old YouTube channel that was linked to a Google account but it uses a Hotmail Address. I know the password but it keeps asking for 2FA phone number, I made the account years ago so obviously I don't have the number or even know what that number is! Without number it says open another device with that account, I don't have have one since its 14 years old!

I only lost access recently, I thought this YouTube was tied to actual my Gmail but it turns out I was only brand manage
