Can I run a python script I made in model builder in ArcMap 10.7 on ArcGIS Server 10.8.1?

Question

I created a python script in model builder in ArcGIS Pro and tried to run it on ArcGIS Server 10.8.1, only to find out Server only uses Python 2.7 and Pro outputs the script in 3.

I am considering attempting to recreate the script in ArcMap 10.7 model builder to get around this problem since I read that ArcMap outputs to 2.7.x.

I am just wondering if my theory is true?

Thank you in advance!

If you don't change the python environment, it should be fine.

But the safest way is to publish a web tool via ArcGIS Pro, it will use the Python3 environment on the server.

I get this  (see attached screenshot) when I try to access the python.exe in that folder... I can follow the steps on the link they have there, but I am just worried it might mess something up since this is the production server... is that fear unfounded?
