I dont quite understand your question or the senario. If you want to enable traffic between Host 1 and Host 2 and Host2 is connected to the PIX OutSide Interace LAN, then why you need IPSEC tunnel between Router and PIX. If you looking in to security point of view then either move host 2 behind the PIX or Create VPN tunnel between router and Host 2 etc. I dont know what OS you are running on Host 2 but most of the Server OS supports VPN tunneling.
