Couldn't add <external email address> as a member.

Do you need a Microsoft 365 Group creating or just access to the SharePoint site? I would give that a go, just create a Team Site without a group attached and add them from there, its the option I use the most as I am not a fan of Groups, but that's maybe just me. No idea why it wont work for you but may get you up and running.
Using the Share button in the SharePoint site is that the error you get "Couldn't add as a member"? Screenshot would be good to see.
Have you checked the SharePoint site is setup for external access in the SharePoint Admin centre, sounds like you have if you have done it before but just wanted to check.

Andrew Hodges Thanks for that. Yes, I checked that before posting here. 🙂 But it's a fair question, and one that I would have asked if answering in a thread.
I think I'll probably just nuke this Sharepoint site and try again.
