You need to publish FAZ's port 514 UDP through a VIP, and add a firewall rule to allow syslog traffic from WAN to FAZ (with the VIP as destination) from FML IP only.

I don't have a specific document for this specific case (except the below one), but since there is no s2s VPN between the two equipment I don't know other solution for this case.

However I just noticed that FML supports OFTP (TCP 514).

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortimail/7.4.0/cookbook/811958

In that case you should use OFTP instead of Syslog, as OFTP is over TLS.

Your FAZ is behind some sort of Firewall anyways, so just allow one public IP to talk to FAZ over port 514 (udp/tcp depends on what you use).
You'll see an IP of your FCTEMS cloud instance once it starts to log
