Again, Eli looks to be about 12 to 16, which would make him at least 2 to 6 years older then Raiden when he was Captain of the Small Boy Unit. at the age of 10 somewhere between 1989 and 1996, leaving out just about any possibility of Big Boss meeting him at that age as by then he was already training Solid Snake and leading Foxhound. Also it's good to note, that Solidus was Raiden's foster father and he is slightly younger than Liquid and Solid (with him being "created" after the twins) and therefore all three of them are more than likely over ten years older than Raiden, even with Solidus aging about double times or so faster than average individual. According to this assumption, at his earliest, Raiden could have been born in 1982, in other words He would be at most two years old by the 1984 Phantom Pain takes place and that obviously rules out any possibility of him being Eli.
