So he doesn't appear the same age as Solid or Liquid Snake do.

b) He was an adult when he led that unit. to a) solidus was born 2 years after but has more age accelerating in his genes: source:  http://metalgear.wikia.com/wiki/Solidus_Snake

The accelerated aging written into each clone's genes provided the fail-safe of a limited life-span, should Solidus's genetic data fall into enemy hands or he himself turn against the Patriots. This was apparently designed to have a greater effect in Solidus's case, thus producing the required figurehead for the Patriots (a United States President in the image of Big Boss) in a relatively short space of time. As a result, Solidus would appear considerably older than his cloned brothers in later life, despite being created shortly afterwards.

to b) according to this wiki he lead the unit at his teen age: http://metalgear.wikia.com/wiki/Small_Boy_Unit

The Army of the Devil was a military group that fought in the Liberian Civil War. One of its units included the Small Boy Unit, which was comprised of child soldiers and led by a teenage Solidus Snake.

so we can´t 100% say it can´t be solidus...

i find it interresting to call the army army of the devil, because big boss or snake whatever u wanna call him looks kinda devilish with his new horn... the only thing that makes me say no its not solidus is the sentence "a youth who curses his fate". as its stated that solidus been proudly to have big boss´s genes...
