A very high level problem has been given, yes - with no details on the exact fix you are trying.

I refer to the one that appeirs on OGCS

Well I gave a quote of what I think you are referring to, and you ignored it, so I have no way of knowing still whether that is the “one that appeirs on OGCS” or not.

and no it does not provide any solution.

A solution is certainly provided to the issue I think you refer to: “delete the entire series in Google and let OGCS recreate it.” but again, you are not saying if you tried that and it didn’t work. I also said this has nothing to do with this issue (OGCS removing Outlook entries), so why would you expect that solution to work? For the record, it should stop the message appearing, but it wouldn’t stop OGCS trying to delete items in Outlook.

For example I changed a few reccurent events on Outlook and they do not sync into Google

Doesn’t sound related no, but then without a log file to investigate with, very hard to say. Again, no explanation as to if you changed the whole series, just a few occurrences with the series etc. If the latter, and you clicked and dragged them to a new time, try restarting Outlook and syncing again.
