Dave Kleimen is an interesting candidate for Satoshi, but I can't get by the way he died and yet didn't touch the vault of coins. It's hard to imagine... I don't think he had the technical chops for it either.

Len Sassaman is still the top candidate in my book.

I agree with this judgement.

Another hot candidate is in my opinion Nick Szabo (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Szabo).

Adam Back is distant third after Len and Nick... I'd wager Satoshi is/was one of them!
