Ok to stay consistent:
Eth0 120.207.7.245
Eth2 120.207.17.22

Please answer questions at the point they're asked.
I am testing from:
120.207.6.11


How are you directing traffic to the Machine Under Test (MUT)?

The behaviour you are seeing is (assuming your description and my interpretation of your description) is what I would expect: MUT has a packet to send to 120.207.6.11 and since it doesn't have a route (either implicit or explicit) for that, it goes out via the default route.

Remember, in the more general case where MUT has a third interface and routes traffic to/from that interface, it cannot possibly relate individual packets to any particular conversation.

Well, not without some work. Try this google search for hours of reading pleasure:

This was not the case.  Traffic from eth0 tried to go out eth2  traffic out

What IP Address are you testing _from_ ?

Please answer this question first.
