Eli's identity is as confirmed as a character can get without Kojima telling us flat out who he is. He looks like Liquid, wears a jacket with the words "Never Be Game Over", which references one of Liquid's famous lines. Both characters have a fondness for going shirtless, and wearing accessories around their necks. For Liquid it was dog tags, for Eli it's jackal teeth.

Eli being Liquid lines up with what Miller says in the phone call at the end of Peace Walker, when he says there are "two already", refering to the LET project. Some also believe that the weapon in Africa to surpass Metal Gear is actually Liquid, as Africa is where Eli seems to be located.
