Wrong "Too many indexers" error asking for missing key in Series MultiIndex

Problem description

The second error is correct, the first is wrong. Might be related to #20951, which however is easier to explain given that it happens on a DataFrame, where there is the axis/level ambiguity.

Expected Output

KeyError: 'the label [3] is not in the [index]'
