Unable to open camera when running simple_camera.py with Python version 3.7.5

Describe the issue
Unable to open camera when running simple_camera.py with Python version 3.7.5 using VSCode.

What version of L4T/JetPack
L4T/JetPack version: 4.6.1

What version of OpenCV
OpenCV version: 4.1.1.2 (although some seem to be 3.2.0 when I use the command: "dpkg -l | grep libopencv")

Python Version
Python version if applicable: 3.7.5

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Power the Jetson Nano
2. Attach RPi V2 camera
3. Clone this repo
4. Run the simple_camera.py file

Expected behavior
A Gstreamer window pops up which shows the camera working, like it does for python 2.7.17

Additional context

1. I have a ton of different installations and overall, it's kind of a mess. Locating the root issue might be rather problematic.
2. I have used a command that removes python from the computer so that I could install the 3.7 version, what issues might this have caused? Well I needed to at least reinstall pip, who knows what else it did.

Can anyone help me with this issues. Simple_camera.py works with 2.7 but when I run it python3 (3.8) it errors out saying not able to open camera.

Appreciate if you can help me with this issues. This is on Nvidia Jetson Nano.

I am using python3.8 and I am getting
ImportError: cannot import name '_gi' from partially initialized module 'gi' (most likely due to circular import) (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/init.py)
