He said he thought it was unnecessary to include a proof that I would just copy from somewhere, but also wasn't sure whether or how to cite the exercise. So if I do include the proof, would I just put a line like "This proof is taken from the exercise classes of lecture X that was given in year Y by lecturer Z" in the beginning? | |

But ordinary plagiarism is a possibility if the impression is given that the OP developed the exercise themself. And including the proof seems to go against the wishes of the advisor who may have been the originator of the exercise. | |
