They saw the anthropomorphic God. The 'angel of the Lord'. God is spirit and totally other than we are. To see Him in His entire Glory would be to die. The 'word' and the 'angel' are mentioned quite a few times in the Tanakh. 'In the likeness of a man'. Yeshua called Himself 'the son of man', and He is thus portrayed in the Tanakh and the NT.

So which is it? Did they see God or not?

John 1:18 -No man has seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, he has declared him.

Exodus 24:9 - Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up, 10 and they saw the God of Israel. There was under his feet as it were a pavement of sapphire stone, like the very heaven for clearness. 11 And he did not lay his hand on the chief men of the people of Israel; they beheld God, and ate and drank.

I do not see this account as a contradiction.  Consider the verse a Exodus 24:11.  What they all witnessed was a "vision."
