Identify the web service to overwrite that is associated with a web App

Good day

I am trying to overwrite a Web layer in ArcGIS Online. I have a Web Application that was created by another person that I need to remove some layers and add updated ones. I managed to find the Web Map for that Application and updated it. Now my issue is finding the "Web service" (not sure if I am saying the right thing here) to overwrite.

How can I identify the "Web service" associated with the Web Map and Web App that I am trying to update.

Thank you

If it's a layer in your web map, you can probably find the item page by looking at the layer properties in the web map.

https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/create-maps/set-layer-properties.htm

If it's specifically a web service, you can try spotting the query that loads the data in your browsers developer tools. I believe that will also have service name or the item id, I can't remember specifically which one.
