Hi, welcome to the forum! :D

A little chaotic post, but if I get this correct:

pass - pass - 1 - 1
pass - 2 - pass - pass
3 - Dbl*

I wonder what that East guy can have (the 3 bidder) :blink: .

Anyway, I usually play reversed lead directing Doubles when opponents cuebid our suit. So:

pass = you can lead the suit
Dbl = don't lead our suit

I agree with Free, in general best to play the double as "don't lead my suit". This is a very unusual auction indeed.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.
