I’m voting to close this question because, from the tag: SEO questions are off-topic. Only programming-related SEO questions are acceptable on Stack Overflow. Non-programming SEO questions should be asked on Webmasters.SE at https://webmasters.stackexchange.com. If someone has directed you here to read this warning, go back and delete your question. – Rob Oct 21 '22 at 09:26

I worked it out.
Code had been injected into a source code file that redirects the site if it is a website indexer. Ingeniously, this code did not do anything for over a year so I didn't see the issue as no files appeared to be recently modified.
To find the issue, download the live site and search it for "redirect"
