How to configure transforms.conf on a heavy forwarder to combine sourcetype and host into one host key?

I'm exporting events from a Heavy Forwarder to syslog without indexing (throwing to nullQueue after syslog output). Since syslog contains only 'host' and raw data, I'm missing the 'sourcetype' in the syslog. I would like to make an index-time transform that combines the sourcetype and the host, together in the host field. The reason for that, is because I'm sending those events to syslog-ng, and not to a Splunk indexer. Syslog format cannot contain special fields like sourcetype. Is there any way to use transform with two SOURCE_KEYs into one DEST_KEY?
