If there are more routes to the same destination, only the best route
is considered for export. If the best route is filtered, then no route
is exported.

If you want to export one default route to the OSPF and a different
one to the downstream BGP, you have to use two routing tables and
a pipe, for example one (master) routing table for upstream BGP
and OSPF and another table for downstream BGP and a static protocol
with a default route. And a pipe that forwards routes from master
to the secondary table, but does not forward default from secondary
to the primary table.
