Your last question requires a bit of clarification.  As a single member LLC, the IRS considers you a disregarded entity.  You pay self-employment tax on your "profit" which is the equivalent of both halves (the employer's and employee's) Social Security and Medicare tax.  You are not an employee, you are a sole proprietor.  You don't pay yourself like an employee and withhold taxes.   If you have been doing that, you need to stop.  If you did that in 2022, did you issue yourself a W-2?  As far as only paying payroll tax on your "draws", you are confusing a sole proprietorship and an S-Corp, or LLC that elected S-Corp status.
