Sorry. "1.2.3.1" was just a placeholder. I didn't want to post the full public IP addresses.

Also do you have 8 IP addresses total....or 8 +1 ?
In last case the single address goes to your pppoe interface automatically, the ISP routes the 8 addresses (your x.x.x.104/29) towards this pppoe address, and you can simply assign x.x.x.110/29 address to eth2
pppoe, and 8 total, 5 usable according to CL.
It seems that the pppoe0 interface is getting IP address x.x.x.110 automatically, even if I have no address assigned to eth1... so the adjustment I made to my configuration (in my first post) was wrong - I should have just removed the "address dhcp" line (?)
