You will probably need to embed youtube iframe.
For example, using
https://github.com/org2blog/org2blog?tab=readme-ov-file#raw-html-creation

Also, you can define a custom link type as described in
https://bitspook.in/blog/extending-org-mode-to-handle-youtube-links/ or
as done in https://github.com/TobiasZawada/org-yt
Although, you may need to adjust things for org2blog export backend,
which is not html AFAIU.
