The BIND name server doesn't listen for requests on any untrusted port
unless you tell it to do that.

That's correct. It will have TCP and UDP listeners on port 53 of both
interfaces. If you don't want the name server to listen on a specific
interface, use the listen-on clause in the options{} statement.
