You are sending your packets as UDP so if I understand the design correctly the ethertype signal that should have been asserted is ethertype.TYPE_UDP_IPV4 and not ethertype.TYPE_NON_PTP.

It is rather odd that it doesn't even recognize the packet as ptp. Do you need a special configuration for that? I only had a quick look at the user guide and I didn't find anything. I know the MAC from the Cyclone V Soc has a specific configuration bit to enable PTP detection over UDP/Ipv4.
