And as a conclusion, Elgamal problems would be harder to solve. Is it correct?
No; it is not sure that the discrete logarithm problem is harder to

Is this a generic asymmetric premise?
I mean: is it valid both to the (computational) Mathematics behind
OpenPGP's and X.509's public keys' integers?
Yes. All real world asymmetric algorithms are build on a hard so solve
computional
