What about pipe like solutions hostux etc? How do they work? Is it through API? Can Google block it like reddit did theirs? Also if google is so concerned about add blockers why do they allow those extensions in their Chrome store?

Piped/invidious work by scrapping the video chunks directly from google and proxying them through volunteer servers. They will stop working as soon as google gets around to locking down the APIs that they are abusing, or blocks their server IPs.
