Python 3.8 + Pip on WSL

I've being looking around on the internet and either nobody else has this problem, or nobody else can solve it. I used the deadsnake repository to use Python 3.8, which seems to work, but when I try to get pip it starts complaining about not having distutils.cmd. This is WSL Ubuntu 22.04. There shouldn't be a *.cmd anything.

Online everybody who claims to know tells me use apt install python3-pip. This just installs python3.10 even though the article was about getting python3.8. Everywhere I look specifically for how to do it on WSL, they either don't tell me anything different, or they leave pip out.

Here is the main article I was following: https://www.linuxcapable.com/install-python-3-8-on-ubuntu-linux/#:~:text=Install%20Python%20PIP%20with%203.8%20on%20Ubuntu%20Linux,the%20following%20APT%20command.%20sudo%20apt%20install%20python3-pip

Does anyone know a way to fix this?

EDIT: Here's the error message.
