However I see the images provided.

Check whether your loopback module was actually compiled and installed. Just having the -dkms package installed doesn't mean anything whether it was build.
 
Alright I will try to regenerate initramfs . Also, How do I compile v4l2 from source? what github repo??

**edit regenerating initramfs didnt work.
 
also run command modinfo v4l2loopback
make sure the filename field shows your current kernel version

you could also start a virtual camera using ffmpeg just to see if it works without obs
try
ffmpeg -i /dev/video0 -f v4l2 -vcodec rawvideo -pix_fmt yuv420p /dev/video2
