Page Events are the best way to add headers/footers.

HeaderFooter is an obsolete way to add headers/footers.
These are two completely different ways.
You can't mix them.

I suggest that you remove the lines that refer to the HeaderFooter object
from your code and that you draw the header in the onEndPage method
of your PageNumbersWebDraftEventHelper.
I still don't understand at which point you want to change the headers,
but the best way to do this, is to add a member variable for the header
to the event class and to subclass the XML handler class so that it changes
this header when necessary.
best regards,
Bruno
