OBS is dependent on the device drivers built into the OS or that are provided by a device's manufacturers. What you see in properties is what those device drivers expose. It is not unusual for Windows drivers to show options the MacOS drivers don't have.
Your MacOS screen shot indicates OBS is not seeing the device at all, as you haven't selected a device from the pulldown next to "device".

Please post a log with your issue! Here's how...
OBS Studio creates a log file each time you run it which contains very useful diagnostic information. Without a log file, it's much harder for any support volunteers to figure out problems and your post may be ignored. To upload a log file, go to the Help menu > Log Files > Upload Last Log...

What happens if you uncheck "Use Preset"?
Thank you for getting back to me.
Here is an image with the device being recognized. Still no properties.
And here is all I get when clicking the Use Presets off:
Still nothing even close to the options I have with Windows. The Mac is a Macbook Air so might it have something to do with the graphics card? Also I noticed there are two types of OBS, the original and the studio version. I was thinking of uninstalling and trying to download the studio version. Maybe that would change things. The version I have right now just says OBS.
If you think of anything other work around I would love to hear it.
I am also thinking of checking out some other streaming software for MAC.

I installed the Logitech Drivers and I see this.
Chiggins, I am having the same issue. I see that you have posted earlier this year. Did you manage to figure out any workarounds for this issue?

Notice on mine that "Use Presets" was not checked. On yours it is.
There should still be more functionality and customisation options available. Even with "Use Presets" not checked.
