I'm assuming you mean that you need either your headers or your footers to 
contain the above ... remember that in XSL-FO the content of the paginated 
flow isn't being tested, rather, the particular page geometry being 
selected in the page sequence to accommodate the paginated flow is what is 
being tested for odd and even.

You haven't yet named your regions distinctly ... you will need to set up 
the differing regions with something like:

   <simple-page-master master-name="rightPage" ...>
     <region-before region-name="contents-before-right" extent="6.5cm"/>

   <simple-page-master master-name="leftPage" ...>
     <region-before region-name="contents-before-left" extent="6.5cm"/>

Then, in each of your page sequences, define the static content you want to 
appear in these regions that will be triggered by the paginated flow:

     <static-content flow-name="contents-before-right">
       <block>Before right block</block>
     </static-content>
     <static-content flow-name="contents-before-left">
       <block>Before left block</block>
     </static-content>

The names of the regions are up to you.

I hope this helps.
