First of all, use an empirical methodology.

Destroy your gre tunnel with
        ifconfig gre0 down
        ifconfig gre0 destroy

Clear your ARP table.
        arp -ad

Try to reach 192.50.51.28. For example with ping or telnet to port 22.
Then check arp table entry
        arp 192.50.51.28

If it still displays a different MAC address instead of what you expect, it's not related with GRE. It really resolves to this address. Check your network configuration (switches, IPs, etc) or your a priori.

If it's OK. Try again. It could be an outdated ARP entry.
After creating gre0 if, clear the arp table again. It should resolve to the same MAC. If not, yes you've found a weird bug. (I don't guess so)

By looking at MAC's OUI part,
192.50.51.29 @ 00:16:cb:a2:8e:c5 seems like an Apple machine.
192.50.51.28 @ 00:e0:4d:02:d6:0e seems like an Internet Initiative Japan's Machine or Ethernet card. (could be an nvidia nforce or an old realtek card too)

Check these details for an easier troubleshooting session.

BTW, it'll be better to specify your version, your network cards, your architecture. Attaching a dmesg is way simpler.
