From here:
https://yum.postgresql.org/14/redhat/rhel-7-x86_64/repoview/postgresql14-contrib.html
postgresql14-contrib-14.15-1PGDG.rhel7.x86_64
hstore_plpython3.so
jsonb_plpython3.so
ltree_plpython3.so
So I'm going to say yes Python 3 is needed.
FYI I don't see those files in postgresql13-contrib.
If you want to move forward you need to either install Python 3 in your
current distro or use a different distro.
