There's daylight between the two amendments as one bars being elected and the other speaks of ineligibility, which AFAIK is only defined in terms of age and citizenship.
That daylight is nominal at best. IANAL, but if he cannot run for President due to term limits, he cannot run for VP, as if he did accede to the Presidency he would automatically violate 22A.
