How to Delete Meta Account with no Password and No Access to Email

Hello all, I recently picked up a quest 3, 4 years after selling my quest 2. I set up my quest 3 with my current credentials, but when I went to connect it to my FB, it said there was already a Meta account linked. Turns out, I have a meta account already linked that used my old ymail that I no longer have access to. I tried to delete that account, but have been unsuccessful as I don't have a password for that account (I was signing in with FB) and when I try to create a password to delete the account, it sends a confirmation code to the email that I no longer have access to.  I was able to get to another option using the device serial ID as a verification method, but unfortunately I don't have access to that device anymore and have no idea what serial number could be. Is there anyway that I can delete or remove my old meta account so I can link my new account with my FB.
