    I am trying to find a decent way to accurately align a cm camera with a regular vanilla non-physical camera that has transform and fov keyframes animated in a 3rd party 3d application. The purpose of showcasing a cutscene that has been pre-choreographed to a seamless transition of gameplay. On its face, this seems like a simple one-to-one copy and paste but there are so many variables (over-engineered IMO) at play this simple task seems utterly impossible.

    Add a CinemachineExternalCamera component to the Camera that was animated. This will expose it as a virtual camera to the CM system. They will share the same transform, and the FOV will be pulled from the animated camera every frame.
