Hi. Not sure if anyone else has this problem but I'm getting an issue after updating DAZ to 4.22 where none of my OOT (Out Of Touch) hair products work anymore in DAZ. Hair from other creators are still working fine. I've posted an error log as well

This is discussed at length in the release threads:

the issue is a shared file used by the custom shader on many of their hairs - a fair proportion of the products have been updated but, depending on installation mthod and order, you may be getting an older, unupdated file (regardless of which hair you use). A fix is to seelct the hair model(s) in the Scene, then in the editor tab of the Surfaces pane select them again (to get all surfaces using the custom shader). You need to remove any maps applied to the Transmitted Colour proeprty, so type transm in the filter box at the top of the pane and then click the micro-thumbnail icon to the left of the colour picker and select None.
There is a known issue with the Hairblending shader. Most, if not all, OOT hairs have been updated to correct the problem. There are several thread discussing the problem. This is one: 4.22 crashes when rendering
