The typical way to pass the original client IP would be in an HTTP header. If you aren't decrypting the SSL on LTM, you wouldn't be able to insert an HTTP header in the request sent to the pool member. There isn't another mechanism to pass this information in the request for HTTPS. So you'd either need to go without the original client IP in your existing scenario, change the routing so you don't need to SNAT the traffic or decrypt the traffic on LTM so you can insert the XFF header.
