Drainage at z-2.
Overflow at z-1.
Dining room at z.

You can build your drainage in a winding spiral as far down as you want, just make sure that where the waterfall hits the drainage, there's two z-levels above the cavern floor.  The water at z-1 lands on water, has the chance to splash around, then warps to the output of the drainage.

The width is completely irrelevant: infinite amounts of water can transport instantly as long as it's lying on top of water and it has somewhere lower to go.  You can drain an ocean through a 1-tile pipe in a single frame.

Excellent...wait, the vertical axle is leaking. 
DECONSTRUCT THE GEARS!!!
Nah, it would have leaked anyway. Minor problem, fixed, now the dining hallterfall is fine and the well is relocated in what I had made as an internal power source.
