According to this article 
<https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/requests#Python_Responses>, 
the 'Content-Length' and 'Transfer-Encoding' headers are remove from 
responses your application may serve. Those headers are then added by the 
Google Front End and finally, the response is served.

I can't yet reproduce what you're experiencing as all GET and POST requests 
to both my App Engine and MVM instances return 'Content-Length' headers. 
Could you provide the following information so we could narrow our testing 
requirements:

   - Request headers
   - Runtime specs (Java, Python, PHP, Go, MVM)
   - Code sample of your request handler
   - Does this occur with all your modules/versions?
   - If you deploy a 'Hello World', do you also get responses without these 
   headers?
   - Is their any proxy between the Google Front End and the client that 
   might be removing these headers?
   
Any information you can provide to more effectively diagnose or reproduce 
the issue would be very helpful.
