I regret that you cannot tell me the source of your story. In my
mind, at least, it makes it considerably less than a real hadith.

It took me two hours, but I found my file:

=====
[Jesus] was only what the Prophet described him to be in his controversy
with the Najrån deputation when he said to them: "Do you not know that
Jesus was conceived by a woman in the manner in which all women
conceive? Then she was delivered of him as women are delivered of their
children? Then he was fed as children are fed. Then he ate food and
drank water and answered the call of nature (as all mortals do)? The
deputation replied to all these questions in the affirmative, on which
the Prophet said: Then how can your claim (that he was God or Son of
God) be true?" (IJ)

Muhammad 'Ali, Fifth Edition (1951), p. 148, footnote 44a; Sixth Edition
(1973), p. 141-2, footnote 422. "IJ" is Jåmi al-Bayån fi Tafsir
al-Qur'ån (Commentary), by al-Imåm Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari
=====

As you can see, I was mistaken in thinking that the footnote had
been removed in the Sixth Edition (1973) and only appeared in the Fifth
Edition (1963). I also found a copy of the Fifth Edition, I'm waiting
for verification that it is the edition we want, before we buy it.

I believe Tabari is one of the sources you cite on occasion? That's
the source of this report.
