NB: According to the documentation, the third parameter to the hash_hmac function is a string containing the secret key:
PHP: hash_hmac - Manual[^]

You're passing in an integer which, from the name, you were expecting to be the number of hashing iterations used.

There is no easy way to convert it directly. You should look at .NET cryptography model | Microsoft Docs[^] to see which classes and methods you need to implement.
