You need to install windows compatibility pack first to make it work with .net core it’s available on NuGet , I checked it working fine able to write to event log

System.Diagnostics.EventLog.SourceExists is called from a .net standard 2.0 library referenced by a .net framework 4.7.2 project.

Then you might need to install this from the where it is being called
