Generator should be wired to house battery since MH engine is wired to chassis battery. That way, if either battery dies, the OTHER engine can be started. You are not dead in the water. If both are wired to the same battery, and it dies, nothing will start.
If the generator is wired to the house battery and the house battery dies, you merely start the MH engine. The isolator/disconnect relay then connects the two batteries together and the chassis battery, boosted by the alternator, will start the generator.
