That's not what I'm seeing though...

From my original diagram, all ISIS routes comes up as L1, while the ones
from external routing protocol is easily controlled by the redistribution
command...

ISIS will decide L1 if the router get ISIS update from
same Area,
or decide L2 if get from another area,
if there is a redistribution, we should state whether
entry redistributed will be L1 or L2,
by default is L2,
