For all that it's worth, I'm going to muddy the waters by throwing in 
another possibility: James wasn't told of the prank by anyone: he saw 
Snape going into the tunnel in the marauders map, and realised at that 
moment that something was terribly wrong.

So, no Lily, Peter or unknown third persons - just a little common 
sense. :-P

Hope that helps,
