Sounds like you’ve got a weird mix of route origination. Why wouldn’t you advertise to Google via BGP and have your 
prefix originate from your own ASN?

Big Cloud byoip doesn't generally work that way. You register the
addresses in their portal and they handle everything else with the
expectation that their AS is the sole origin for the prefix in
question. At least that's how the AWS offering works. I presume GCP is
the same. They're not acting as a general-purpose ISP.
