As a client, i'm using 8.8.8.8 as a DNS Server. When I performed nslookup to . I want to know who's DNS server is the one sending DNS query to GTM, is it the 8.8.8.8(Client DNS) or the External DNS (company.com)?

The queries will come from the Client DNS server. Once the query reaches the CNAME record on the External DNS server, the Client DNS will attempt to restart the DNS query process but instead it will search for the domain name listed in the CNAME record.
