I don't know. Worst LH fume events were in the Germanwings/Eurowings group, and those have (among others) A319-132s powered by V2500 engines.
Given that the V2500 operates at higher oil pressures than the CFM, that may contribute to the issues.
Would have to check what percentage of the fume events happened with which engines.
