Hi again

I don't know anything about haproxy config and how it should look like
unfortunately.

As for torrc:

ORPort <ip address, where the proxy forwards the requests>:3128
NoAdevertise
ORPort <ip address of the actual proxy, where the server should be
reached>:3128 NoListen

remove Address line.

Leave the contact info and other settings. Let us know if it works
this way.
