No, you don't need to separate the process since you are using a different
area.  Even if you have different OSPF processes, all the routes get placed
in your Routing table.  They just won't be redistributed beyond that router.
This might be part of the affect you want, but you do want to hand them off
to the internet.  Are they coming in on the same router where you have your
BGP peering?
