Hi,
thanks a lot for your reply - i did manage to get it work now (after some sleepless days/nights).
I figured out that Masquerading had still been "on", and thus the IP had obviously been SNATed 
However, veth as suggested caused issues in my recent tries, and bridging does not seem to be an option hence i have only one NIC, and bridging it to the VE would do same than just moving the NIC to the VE.
What i´m still struggling with is the fact that i do have my "main" IP within one subnet and the VE´s IPs in a different subnet.
From that perspective i´d thought about enabling FW_ALLOW_CLASS_ROUTING within my Firewall, however i just used FORWARD for all traffic heading towards and from my VE and 'firewall' it within the VE once again.
*snip*
I really thing networking as such needs some more explanation within the VZopen WIKI, even though it´s not a core topic for this page a lot of issues seem to arise from it, and some straight forward HowTo´s might save some days of "work" (like in my case).
Unfortunately i´m not that familiar with the topic, thus i´m unable to contribute here  .
I appreciate that networking configurations may differ heavily on the specific setup, however some generic stuff - like not to add the IP to anywhere within the host or questions like "shall i disable venet0 when utilizing veth ?" could be helpful.
Thanks again for your posts ! 
Rgds,
Marco
