Vampire does change your race but as an Orc you should have already been Blood-Kin. Only thing I can guess is that the trigger for being blood-kin doesn't fire until you get to the outpost, but as a Vampire you don't count as an Orc anymore.

I have never played an Orc Vampire so I have don't have a sure answer for you. All I can say it either cure yourself or do another quest that gives you Blood-Kin.

I usually just walk in. (Save your game first). Still can't interact with anyone even if you have a radiant quest to deliver them something. It's really....really....REALLY Stupid.

I am not doing another quest to finish this quest. Looking at you Gaulder Amulet and being forced to Join the Mages Guild. Looking at you too Dragon Mask Quest and DOING 8/10ths of the Mage Guild Line. And gems of Barenziah can straight up go to heck. HECK I SAID.

All you need to do is help people of which an Orc is part of it. I've been made blood-kin by helping the College of Winterhold library custodian.

Being a vampire changes your race to something like

OrcVampireRace

That did not explain anything.

As an Orc you are Blood-Kin but because you have left your stronghold you are not welcome to come back, you are considered an out-lander.

To fix this head out the back gate in Riften along the lake, when your reach the bridge look left to find an Orc stronghold, Largashbur.

You will see they are fighting a Giant, help them kill it, then speak with
Atub the Orc sorceress. She will ask for your help, complete her quest and you will be welcomed to any stronghold.

Actually all orcs are blood kin, even the ones that left the srongholds, but the game treats
vampires as a separate race.
