Luckily remediating this is relatively easy: Use some indicator for "certified 2036 proof" NTP clients that's visible on the network (a different port, an extension, ...), then observe the network to find legacy traffic.
Won't catch absolutely everything (e.g. local containers), but will probably get pretty close. Especially if modern NTP client versions have some way to resolve the ambiguity, e.g. a hardcoded "it's after 2020".
