The error message is saying it can't open that file on the source;
testing access on your local (destination) system is irrelevant.

$ rsync 'rsync://centos.mirror.rafal.ca/CentOS/7.9.2009/updates/x86_64/repodata/.~tmp~'
drwx------          4,096 2022/11/10 22:39:21 .~tmp~

$ rsync 'rsync://centos.mirror.rafal.ca/CentOS/7.9.2009/updates/x86_64/repodata/.~tmp~/'
rsync: change_dir "/7.9.2009/updates/x86_64/repodata/.~tmp~" (in CentOS) failed: Permission denied (13)

You might want to --exclude '.~tmp~'
