You can try using an adapter or BIOS setting to enable onboard graphics without needing an APU. For your Ryzen 3600, checking the motherboard manual for graphics support options or adjusting power management settings might help. If available, some motherboards allow enabling integrated graphics via BIOS tweaks. Otherwise, you may need to replace the CPU if onboard graphics aren't functional.
There is an adapter you can buy. It's called an Nvidia GeForce card, and you can put it in your PCIe slot. Of course, this is a joke. Since there is not GPU on the CPU, you have to install a dedicated GPU. If you want great value and similar performance to a Ryzen APU, I recommend a GTX 1650 or even a 1050 Ti.
The onboard graphics, such as the integrated GPU, aren't included in the motherboard. It only provides connectors for the screens, not the actual GPU hardware; any iGPU is built into the CPU, so your request isn't possible. You should either purchase an APU or a dedicated GPU.
You can connect the 1650 directly to your motherboard for the onboard output. Your graphics card is already working, so this should be feasible.
It resides within the silicon of the CPU, which this particular one lacks
