In drawing 2, go into the Design Center [ADC command, or Ctrl+2], navigate to drawing 1 and its Block section, and right-click on that Block. You will be given the choice of whether to: A. Insert one [in which case it will use the definition already in drawing 2], or B. update the Block's definition in drawing 2 to match that in drawing 1 [without Inserting another], or C. update the definition and Insert another one.

You can use Design Center. Open drawing 1. select drawing 2 with the updated block. Right Click and Redefine.
