If you want to insert this header and the client SSL profile only allows SSL requests (Non-SSL Connections is not enabled) then you can configure a custom HTTP profile with 'Header Erase' set to X-Forwarded-Proto and 'Header Insert' set to 'X-Forwarded-Proto: https'. This ensures that any existing X-Forwarded-Proto headers are removed and a new X-Forwarded-Proto header with a value of https is inserted.
