I'd actually just not peer with AS2, then... "don't peer with customers".

(Yes, this is not exactly what you wanted to hear - but everything else
that I could think of sounds horribly complicated, prone to fail, or
likely to burn lots of router memory for dubious gains).

If only AS3 and AS2 are involved, maybe a direct peering AS2<->AS3
could be arranged, to achieve the goal of traffic from AS3 reaching
AS2 without paying for uplink costs?
