That xev output looks correct, I get the same output from 'xev' but
don't get this bug.
Does the problem occur in GNOME Terminal or some other terminal app?
Also do you have any accessibility settings enabled (look in Settings >
Universal Access)?

Title:
Delete key inputs Unicode Delete character (007F) instead of deleting
the next character
Status in mutter package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
When pressed, the delete key inputs the Unicode 007F character instead
of deleting the following character. In most cases, this is difficult
to see, but in a terminal, the 007F is clearly visible.
The xev output for the key press is following:
KeyPress event, serial 36, synthetic NO, window 0x4200001,
root 0x5df, subw 0x0, time 81101326, (1403,948), root:(1453,1062),
state 0x0, keycode 119 (keysym 0xffff, Delete), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (7f) ""
XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (7f) ""
XFilterEvent returns: False
KeyRelease event, serial 36, synthetic NO, window 0x4200001,
root 0x5df, subw 0x0, time 81101443, (1403,948), root:(1453,1062),
state 0x0, keycode 119 (keysym 0xffff, Delete), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (7f) ""
XFilterEvent returns: False
This is a new fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04, I don't remember the delete key
working at any point since the installation.
