Just want to leave a note that this is applied only for words that after the ん stands another vowel (in the examples given: げん[い]ん、こん[や]く、せん[え]ん. and you must avoid liaisons while pronouncing. I must say this is very tactful. Thank you.
Yes, Vowels, fricatives, and approximates to be precise. Incidentally I outline this with native speech examples in the lesson ^^

To my ears, it sounds like changing the ん pronunciation to /ŋ/ in these kinds of situation.

Could be for certain speakers. However the linguistic resources I use generally agree that in standard Japanese it’s some sort of nasalized vowel. Cheers!
