....
Do the parking prawls fail in a way to cause damage to drive unit seals?
....

The answer is yes.

On the Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Recalls Database
Under Transport Canada Recall # 2020-310 they state
"On certain vehicles, the transmission could be damaged if the driver shifts to the "P" (Park) position before the vehicle has stopped moving. As a result, the vehicle could move when the shift lever is in the Park position and the parking brake is not used."

Hole in transmission caused by parking pawl.

Not sure if the parking failure is related to a fluid leak. On my, I had an axle seal leak, twice, which failure easily and inexpensively fixed, but then the reduction gear box failed, and I had a replacement installed. Been okay since (about a year). It was very difficult to find any new gear box units late last year so hopefully you don't need a new one, or if so the availability has improved.
