First, I think VirtualBox would be looking for kernel-headers.  Only one kernel-headers would be installed
on the system at any one time.  While there would be an equal number of kernel-devel packages installed
as kernels, which is defaulted to 3.

So, the question would be, if you have kernel-5.7.7-200 (which would seem to be the case)
installed why are you not booting that kernel which is the most recent?

What do you get if you

rpm -qa | grep ^kernel
