That would make no difference.
It has nothing to do with it being a boxer engine. The seal used in this engine that causes the issues seen is unique to this Subaru engine. Your risk is no higher at Toyota than it is Subaru. Also, at this point all you need to do is talk to the dealer, ask who will be doing the work and how many they have done.
The risk of failure is low and if it happens, they will make it right despite the few examples on here where they didn't.
Or, you could just not do it and don't worry about it unless you live in CA. Then you always have the option to move I suppose.
