I imported a document to Confluence from Google Docs following this page:

https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/import-content-into-confluence-cloud/

Then I made edits in the original Google Doc and wanted to push them into confluence again. But I can't find a way to reimport except to delete the page and re-create using that workflow. Which is not ideal. Preferably I'd like to overwrite the page as an edit, but i haven't seen a way to import in the edit page.

Other things I've tried: Smart Links and Google Drive Live Links don't seem to do what I want, as they don't let me show the text from the google doc. I would like to show the contents of the Google Doc in Confluence and make its text available to search. If it could automatically update, that'd be great, but I could also manually update it. Additionally, I cannot make my google doc published to the public.

Is there a different way to do it that would be better?

There maybe a marketplace addon that will allow you to resync a Google doc.  However, as you found, there is no base functionality other than deleting and reimporting.
