two days ago, i installed fedora jam 39 on an external drive. This runs successfully. BUT after restart and plug off the external drive Grub from my internal drive does not show my fedora39 installation.

Yes this is correct. If i plugin the drive, fedora jam is correctly booting.

2 boot UEFI File. this is also a normal entry. i use the second option and select the correct file. then fedora39 starts correctly.

it seems, that the recovery scripts from the different tutorials (mostly in end grub2-mkinstall) are not recognizing the fedora39 installation. i do not understand why.
