Also I have a smaller diameter hose that runs out of back of the bilge right on the centerline. Does this drain the "second bilge" or is it the icebox drain?

Consider running a full sized bilge hose under the settee and into the bilge. This leaking pump hose seems like it could be the primary source of water back there, though on my boat, it had a new smaller hose installed, so the water that was stuck in there was coming from elsewhere.

As for the other hose, its the icebox drain. You could check this by pouring a little water into the icebox and seeing where it comes out.
