We have had multiple instances of this, where for eg. in a Team folder on which a Group had access, a user who was always part of this group uploads a file, we get the event and the fileId, and we try to run get_metadata on the file Id, with as-user as the same user, it was failing with 409 path not found.

I just double checked this, and again there doesn't seem to have been an issue here. It's important to keep in mind that users/shared folder owners can move around content, and change permissions, at any point in time. It's also possible for any particular user to not actually be a member of a team folder (or of a group with access to a team folder).
For example, a user can upload a file in a shared folder, and then someone else move that file to a different shared folder that the user doesn't have access to (yet, perhaps).
