I am not familiar with your story but I doubt he'd be breaking no contact in the hope to establish some sort of friendship with you to make her jealous or get back at her for whatever reason. To me it is the attitude of someone who is lost and still has feelings. Maybe he's realized you're a better match to him and this message was a way to test you and where you are at emotionally.
You may back off a little like Stephzilla advised and wait for their relationship to end and so you will avoid the guilt you think you'd have if you were talking to him while he's with her. Either way if things are complicated between them, whether you talk to him or not will not change anything on the outcome. Like I said above, at best it'll give him the opportunity to see you in a better light since your breakup. But you must stay firm on your intentions and not be totally available to him so that he sees you as someone he wants to be with and not a compassionate ear in a difficult time. Goodluck!
