I would have to believe that someone could write a script to do that for you.
If you are willing to pay for such a tool please post in the Hire a Freelancer subforum as it does sound like a recurring issue and not a one off so that may serve you best.

any broken link checker should be able to do this. I am thinking about Scrapebox because I know for a fact that SB can do it, but I'd venture to guess that ScreamingFrog or other site auditing tools can do it, too (Screpy, SE Ranking, WebCEO, etc)

If google crawl active there then Open Search Console > Setting > Crawl Stats > 404/301, should show all broken or redirected urls.
Then it’s easy, collect links and open phpmyadmin database and search for thoose particular links, you will find all details there.

This can be done with a simple script that downloads the contents of the YouTube web pages from your link list and looks for the "playableInEmbed":true text pattern in the downloaded HTML. If found - the video exists and is embeddable. If not - delete the link from the list. That's about 4 lines of code in PHP, Python or what you prefer 
P.S. Don't check the YouTube links for 404 - that's not a solution.

Hey Mate, In your Google Search Console, check for all 404 pages in crawl stats or use a link checker tool.
