Yeah, my primary reason for thinking A-lad is a clone is that I don't believe the clone thing would just be dropped after taking such pains to show it -- with evidence pointing to A-lad being the mole (and the character being so awesome generally -- what a waste if they just off him) I'm thinking the mole replacement makes more sense -- yes he could have always been a sleeper agent for Ocean Master.
