Any advice on how to pull this off? Thanks.
sed 's/ /.contoso.com '

That works because we've explicity been told
  <ip address> <tab> <short hostname> <space> <short hostname alias>
so the first space is a good place to switch.

More generally, if there's possibly multiple spaces or tabs in multiple
places this might work:

  sed 's/^\([^    ]*[     ]*[^    ]*\)\([   ]*.*\)$/\1.contoso.com\2/'

(where there's a space *and* a TAB inside each of the [  ]  )
The above version easier to read and "copy paste". Space is space and tabe is \t

sed 's/^\([^ \t]*[ \t]*[^ \t]*\)\([ \t]*.*\)$/\1.contoso.com\2/'
