I guess you can't translate "He was being drunk." as well.
He WAS drunk (he drank too much, that's a fact)
He HAS BEEN drunk for two hours (he is drunk for two hours already)
He HAD BEEN drunk before we came in (he got drunk before we came in)

No, the second one is not right. The first one is right.

Well, the first sentence means the obvious - He WAS drinking (something).
The second one - I don't believe it is correct. (Correct me if I'm wrong)
