Wireguard and PiHole

[Limete]

My goal is to connect to my home network remotely so I can use my PiHole when accessing from somewhere else. I followed this guide https://homenetworkguy.com/how-to/configure-wireguard-opnsense/ and can connect to the WireGuard server and access the internet but it doesn't seem that it's using my PiHole as the DNS.

In System: Settings: General, I have the DNS Server set to my PiHole internal IP.

In Services: DHCPv4: [LAN], I have the DNS Servers set also to my PiHole internal IP.

Do I need to have a firewall rule to point VPN requests to my PiHole for DNS? Another puzzling question is which DNS server could the Wireguard server be using if not the PiHole?

do you have a firewall rule for your wireguard port 53 pointing to your pihole?
(interface wg, source wg net, destination pi hole, Destination port range DNS)

or

In your guide there is a mention of pi-hole here:

Note

If you are using alternate DNS server(s) such as Pi-hole, you will need to specify those DNS servers by clicking the "advanced mode" and entering the DNS server IP address in the "DNS Server" box. You will need to have a firewall rule to allow access to the alternate DNS server(s) (unless you have an "allow all" rule for your WireGuard clients, which is not the best security practice).
