Nothing. I found the puzzle.

Where is the position?
Whoops! I was wrong. The puzzle that I referred to was made by Vitaly Chekhover and looks like this:
and white has a fortress.
This is not winable? Hard to believe.

Because black's queen has so many infiltration points, but white can handle it, as in the link above.
white still can’t hope to win

Are all puzzles about winning? In the starting position white's position is seemingly hopeless, with no tactics going on. Of course white just wants a draw.
I think it's winnable

Winnable? For white or black? If white, you are crazy, if black, here is a link to a video explaining the puzzle:

Black wins

Did you just check with Stockfish? Yes, I know that Stockfish says black is winning, but sometimes it's wrong, like here:
Stockfish will say that black wins, but apparently that's not the case. In the puzzle, white holds a draw. And if you don't believe me, just let Stockfish play it out against itself. Eventually, it will repeat moves or get a draw by the 50-move rule.
I am searching for a draw puzzle by Leonid Kubbel where in the end position, white is down a queen but has a fortress. Can someone help me find it? Thanks in advance.
