I think the point is less about who is doing the grabbing and more about what is achieved by it and how that is able to be done. In most of those cases the wolves were just taking pain there is so far no proven werewolf power that allows them to heal someone else exept by losing the alpha spark like when Derek healed Cora. Also to do this active participation is required by the healer/ pain taker in every case (obviously excluding peter if you count that which I don’t). That looked more like a werewolf ritual of some kind given that the worm moon and Derek’s blood were not all that was needed don’t forget the party where most of them were hallucinating from wolfsbane spiked punch that was obviously part of the plan. Therefore as there could be no biological benefit to Peter from the party I’d have to say Peter’s revival was more likely magical than purely biological.
