Did you ever get a response? I have a similar issue after switching membership platforms. PayPal tech support had no idea how to resolve and escalated to another PP support dept. 

 

There is a thread on stackoverflow, albeit from 2012, that suggests there is no ability to change the IPN URL on existing PP recurring subscriptions: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11454900/change-the-ipn-url-on-existing-subscription
