I have 2 nodes, and I want to run some servers on Node 1 (like my MC lobby, bungeecord and survival worlds) and on Node 2 the minigames. Now i don't want to expose any ports on Node2 because if they connect directly to it, they can get around the ban system of bungeecord. Is there a buildin way, of should i do all the VPN and networking stuff myself?

There is nothing built into the pterodactyl to enable secure cross node communication. If something like bungeeguard or similar doesn't meet your needs, your only options are either firewall rules (that can be tricky because of how the chains are setup) or as you say, setup a VPN between the machines. I'd recommend wireguard.
I'm familiar with wireguard, so was planning on using that. But thought maybe there is something like that build in. Would have been nice. Up to the CLI it is!
Check out Tailscale for connecting the two nodes securely.
Don’t Minecraft servers behind a bungeecord provide a tool for checking if they are being connected to directly? It’s been a long time since I’ve played with this stuff but I think I remember a feature like that
The "bungee mode" is trivial to bypass
