Just null-route the IP in question and its content won't
transit the gateway.  As root on the gateway box:

   route add -host 192.168.1.x gateway 127.0.0.1

and you'll trap 192.168.1.x within the 192.168.1.0/24 network
-- the firewall box will not be able to reach 192.168.1.x
either -- just hop there from another internal host if you
need to connect to 192.168.1.x.
