How do I add Foundation module in Python3 on MacOS Ventura
Here it says Foundation is part of pyobjc which may be included in certain versions of python3 such as this https://github.com/macadmins/python - Looking at it now, it seems to set itself apart from the developer tools installation of python3 based on it's installation location. So my guess is that it isn't a module installed with CLT's python3.

Installing PKGs via Jamf, how can I "customize" the installer?
Installing python (the MacAdmins Foundation distribution of Python) would be as simple as uploading the installomator script to JSS, adding it as a policy payload with "macadminspython" as a parameter.

Updtating Jamf Scripts to Work with Monterery 12.4
Sounds like the scripts you have may be written in Python 2, which as others have stated, was pulled in 12.3. You can try running one with a Python 2 or 3 interpreter to see. You could technically deploy your own Python 2 to people and update the shebangs on the scripts to reflect the updated Python binary location. But Python 2 has been deprecated since January 2020 so it's probably best to just update the scripts. I dealt with this myself and am by no means a programmer. We have a critical script that maps printers for people that I had to update. I used something called '2to3' which is I believe an official Python program that does its best to convert Python 2 code to Python 3 in an automated fashion. It did 99% of the work for me. My script was still failing, but it was just a variable that was being concatenated as a byte instead of a string. Once that was fixed it ran fine. And then we started deploying https://github.com/macadmins/python - as others have mentioned. And then just updated the shebang to point to where that Python gets installed as per their instructions.

macOS Monterey 12.3 Update is now Available - Python 2.7 Removed & Universal Control Added!
Removed. I deployed macadmins Python3 https://github.com/macadmins/python and changed the shebang in scripts we use.

PSA: Monterey 12.3 update breaks Mac-Set-Default-Apps. I'm guessing it's the removal of Python 2.7
We use Mac-Set-Default-Apps script to set Adobe Reader as default PDF viewer, Chrome as default browser, and Outlook as default mail and calendar clients via a custom script in Mosyle MDM.
