My current contract looks to be running past the 24 months by roughly 10 days. Should I contact the agency to change it or is there any leeway on this?

Rulez is Rulez. 1 day, 10 days. Doesn't matter its over.
Is it really worth cutting your gig short by 10 days just because of expenses?

No being able to claim expenses for the duration of the contract seems to be more expensive... Also these 10 days have any meaning on paper only, I could in theory ask to cut them and them I may get extended again and I will not claim the expenses past that point.Comment

It's from the time you know your contract will last more than 24 months, not the whole duration of the contract.
If you found out in month 23 that you were getting a six week extension then just those six weeks lose expenses.Comment
