(1) You are sure that 124.173.255.221 is not dropping your 172.20.x.x
addresses and (b) you are also not filtering 172.20.x.x on your PE-CE
link?

(2) You could set label-allocation-mode to VRF on the PE peering with
the CE, for this VRF only (downside: you would lose some features like
eiBGP load-sharing and such). That way your PE would route the ICMPs
back to the source.

I don't think there are other solutions.
