For the post hoc tests in 3dMVM,
group1_Scan1_vs_Scan2
group2_Scan1_vs_Scan2
the reason 3dMVM gives different results is that it uses the residuals from both groups, leading a higher number of degrees of freedom than the simple paired t-tests.

Not sure what difference you're referring to here.

It should be the same. I cannot comment further without knowing the exact models you've run.
