My HN is also hosting a regular ve with a regular, routeable external ip that, of course, should remain reacheable from outside

I am in the process of setting up a LAMP-Environment on the ve, and of course it needs contact to the outside world in order to make it easier for me to set it up

Then the LAMP VE needs a routeable IP, just like the other VE. Otherwise, how will you login for management purposes, from the outside? If you insist on using a private IP for the LAMP VE, then you must do a two-stage login (which will soon become tiresome and annoying), or set up some kind of tunnel.
If that is the case, consider using a veth device for the private IP, because AFAIK, there is no way to prevent OpenVZ from publishing an ARP entry for the IP address of a venet interface.
I'm not sure how that will work with a veth interface, because I have not tried it. You can read about veth devices in the wiki. Please let us know how it goes.
