If you're going for an entirely new header, then you should consider adding the redirect path as well to it:

 Origin: <origin host> <frame-ancestor>*[, <redirect-host>]*

So site A frames B which frames C that then POSTs to D, which redirects to E which redirects to F becomes:

 Origin: C B A, D, E
