Hi Kevin --
With a default SNAT in place, the traffic through a forwarding VS would be SNAT'd.
If your server addresses are routable out to the remote syslog server, and UDP is the transport protocol, I think you could configure as follows to preserve source IP even with a default SNAT configured:
Virtual server
