uhhhh, there's no such thing as 25 fps drop frame, so... that's certainly not the problem. (probably best not to give advice on a topic with which you're unfamiliar, Jonkr)

2 frames over the course of 20 minutes is not indicative of any run-of-the-mill frame rate issues, pull downs, etc.

sounds like there's just some nudging/offsets happening, which could be the result of a variety of things, probably from the picture editing. part of your job is to check and adjust sync as necessary, so just adjust it until you're happy.

unless what you're saying is that you've delivered the mix and the editor is telling you that the mix is 2 frames off at the end? that would be different, but unlikely.
