I am following the linked guide for protonvpn to try to get soulseek to work and the soulseek port test tool keeps on saying the port is closed. However when I run natpmpc it seems to be successful - anyone have ideas how to get it up and running?

I haven’t used ProtonVPN, but for PIA the port never showed as open until traffic was going through it.
Once I put the port into qbittorrent and downloaded for a couple of minutes, the port then showed as open for port test tools.
You must check that the client you’re using is trying to use the port that ProtonVPN actually forwards

This should not be needed
Definitely don’t do this. It won’t help with port forwarding over a VPN, and it will increase attack surface for no reason.
