Hi Paul, I'm not 100% certain, but what you've described sounds like there are some contacts in Google that aren't set as either a "person" or "business". It sounds like it's simply wanting to set the contact type for those contacts in Google. You might want to make a backup of your contact data before proceeding.
If you're wanting to keep two-way sync functionality with your Google account, you need to stay away from iCloud. You can read more about that here: http://blog.spanningsync.com/2011/10/icloud.html Please let me know if you have any other questions.
