I have 2 identical startup OSX drives and a windows 7 drive. After updating to 10.5 my normal startup drive "Macintosh Hard Drive" would boot even though selected in BIOS as the startup drive without first being selected by interrupting the boot up process and selecting it.

I absentmindedly forgot to take care of that before updated my alternate clone "Macintosh HD Backup" and now it goes straight to windows and windows is not selected in BIOS.

What is your best guess on what I can install to get the drives seen on startup?

So I have two working drives, I'm sure I just need to get the boot loader install on one of them - the one with the red faced Apple.
 
Would someone take the time to help me out?
 
First, I think you meant 10.8.5, right?

Also, I think you are having a problem with Chimera, right? Is that what you mean when you say "The one with the red faced Apple?"

It sounds like your system still boots but not through Chimera, correct?

Perhaps you should post this in the Chimera forum or at least in the General Help forum.
