The retract-image conjecture for non-bipartite generalized Petersen graphs

Let G(n,k)G(n,k) be a non-bipartite generalized Petersen graph, and let ff be an endomorphism of G(n,k)G(n,k). The retract-image conjecture. The image of ff is a retract of G(n,k)G(n,k).

The claim concerns the structure of endomorphism images. The source notes that it fails for bipartite generalized Petersen graphs, giving the Möbius–Kantor graph G(8,3)G(8,3) as a counterexample, but gives no resolution for the non-bipartite case.
