Hi Andrew,
 
As far as I know about the Contact header is, when SBC sends a request to Redirect server it founds the related proxy and turns back to SBC with contact header (f.e in 302) that contains the IP address of this Element.
It is clear that with contact header info, related element directly send respond to this element (could be element or UA)
 
hope its helpful,
Halit
