What’s the best way to mention in an email that person X suggested that person Y be the owner of a certain process without sounding like i’m throwing anyone under the bus lol ?
“Mary suggested that David act as the process owner until the Sales Manager role is filled. Please let me know your thoughts”
What do we think?

“It’s David’s job.”

funny

Do you support the suggestion? And does David agree? Is this going to someone who can make this happen? One assumes someone has to take up these tasks. Does David have the bandwidth to add these tasks? If not, is someone going to help with his current tasks? Are you, Mary and David the ones most directly impacted? Who is impacted if David does take on this role? What is everyone's relation are you 3 all peers?

If this is meant to push a solution forward, it needs a bit more meat.

One tack would be "we have been discussing how to handle x until the sales manager's roll is filled. Mary suggested David take on Y, and I think that is a good interim solution."

You need to give some supporting reasons

“I support Mary’s decision of making David cover this work because I certainly don’t want to do it.”

I am Product Owner, and have an opportunity to change my Title to "Product Manager". The actual work I'm doing will not change significantly, it's just a Title change, since I've been working less and less with the scrum teams and doing more product analysis over the last year. My main goal with this is to ensure this looks good on my CV. My thought is a Product Manager role seems more senior to a product owner. Any thoughts on this and any advice on how to approach this? I'm based in London.
