Also, if we were to use a "leaf blower" type device to push the ball, would it count as "contact" for rule <G10>? Would such a device even be legal?

In answer to your first question, all the bumper rules are found in <R08>.

For the second question, I don't know. I'm not even sure such a device is practical. I think that's one for Q&A.
