You're right , the change is simple. You just have to make the second
dhcp-option line NOT apply to you wanem-20 host, so
dhcp-option=vl20-ovsbr0,3,192.168.20.254
becomes
dhcp-option=tag:vl20-ovsbr0,tag:!wanem-20,3,192.168.20.254
The above uses the newer tag syntax, and assumes your copy of dnsmasq is
not ancient. If it's earlier than 2.53, then you need
dhcp-option=vl20-ovsbr0,#wanem-20,3,192.168.20.254
Cheers,
Simon.
