You first need find the control on the master page 

Image img = Page.Master.FindControl( "layoutStyleSheet" ) as Image;

then add style to it

img.Attributes.Add("class", "className");

ContentPlaceHolder is element wich won't be existed in output html code. It only defines a region. You can try to change div with class "main". Just add runat="server" and id attributes and access from the code. 

<div id="MainDiv" class="main" runat="server">

and then

MainDiv.Attributes.Add...

You need to partially load the master page in the other child pages like below...

<%@ MasterType VirtualPath="~/Site1.Master" %>

Then in the page load of the child page..put

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        HyperLink contact_menu = (HyperLink)Master.FindControl("contactmenu");
        contact_menu.CssClass = "current";
    }

Change as per your need.. Enjoy..
