I think unless they air an episode,e xplicitely showing how Henry came to SB, this mystery will not be solved. Rumple got his memory back, only  after he heard the name Emma. It was the trigger he had written in the curse to get his memories back. He certainly did not want to be a pawn in Regina's hand  after the saviour arrived, the manipulative Genius that he is. So him getting Henry was purely a chance or a design of the curse unless august posed as the social service guy placing Henry in a system that was sure to deliver Henry to Rumple and  in SB, thus ensuring Emma will be there when time is ripe. Because rumple had not met August before.
