We have got a Panasonic combined oven/grill/microwave so I don't think

The other day we saw some steam coming from under the door. I looked
and I am sure it came from under the door rather than a vent under the
oven. So my worry is, if steam can get out, can microwaves?

No, that doesn't follow at all. Wavelength of 2.4 GHz = 12.5cm. Size
of a water molecule = well, considerably less!
As long as there are no obvious gaps in the door seal, a millimetre
or two is OK, and no rust holes in the cooking cavity, it
will pass a leakage test.
