Brief Answer:
They are not inter related.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Some amount of mucus discharge can come from butt. It's generally considered normal.
Umbilical discharge can be due to many reasons. Urinary tract infection can also cause discharge as the communication between bladder and umbilicus will be patent and may get infected.
It is better to get examined and see the cause of the discharge.

I saw your attachments.
You should proceed with Surgery if the umbilical discharge persists.
The discharge from the umbilicus and Butt have no relation.

Try not to worry, just get it examined to see whats causing the discharge.

Hope I answered your query.

If you have any questions, I will clarify further.

Wish you good health.
Regards
