Tarski's x like Godel's G are know to be true by an infinite sequence of truth preserving operations.

We know, that in the system the statements are made, tehre is an infinite chain of truth preserving operationf from teh fundamental truths of the sytsems to the conclusion.

We know that because in a meta-theory we can develop additional knowledge allowing us to see the infinite chain, with something like an induction property or something else that reduces the infinite to finite.

Right, an infinite "proof", in quotes because that is the term YOU use, even though there is no such thing, but in actuality it is an infinite chain of truth preserving operations  DO establish that something is True in the system, but by being infinite, we can never dirrectly follow that path to know it.

That was your mistake. You said that we could know it.
 Because we can, by knowledge gained in the meta-system.
 
Then it is no longer an infinite proof oh dim one.
It is a finite proof in another system.
