Is this a real concern (anybody please), or will the search engines simply index the url version you link to and ignore the typepad url?
I've got to believe you're getting hurt because of the identical content.

I'm guessing you may have more than one set up this way so I'd consider getting rid of the mapping on one of them and see what happens.
