"It happened very suddenly. The hooked-nosed teacher looked past
Quirrell's turban straight into Harry's eyes--and a sharp, hot pain
shot across the scar on Harry's forehead."

CathyD:
It was my understanding, after we found out it was Quirrell who was after the stone, the pain came from VapourMort, not from Snape making eye-contact with Harry.  Harry knows pain in his scar is connected to proximity to, or some other emotional connection to, LV.  LV was attached to the back of Quirrell's head.  IMO Snape couldn't be looking "past" the turban if Quirrell wasn't facing him.  Harry was getting a full view of LV behind the turban.  It was LV's first opportunity to catch a glimpse of Potter. They were face to face so to speak.

I can't really comment on the rest of your post, hence the big old snip, because I don't believe that Harry is a Horcrux. 

Slughorn indicted to Riddle that a spell was needed to encase the piece of soul inside the item to be made into a Horcrux.  LV had no time to do that.  He was ripped from his body instantly.  Besides, I think Dumbledore would have figured it out, he's been working on this for years.  He knows what Grindelwald did and what was necessary to defeat him. 

"Unless I'm much mistaken, he transferred some of his own powers to you the night he gave you that scar.  *Not something he intended to do*, I'm sure --" The "It certainly seems so" is indicating response to what he already said.  The bit of himself being some of his powers not a piece of his soul.  Certainly Dumbledore would have querried this to bits before he decided on Nagini being the 6th Horcrux? The soul has to be split by murder to make a Horcrux, the 'significant' murder that night was going to be Harry's to make the final Horcrux.  LV's soul wasn't split because he didn't kill Harry.  Yes, he'd already killed Lily and James but saying that LV made Harry into a Horcrux with their death(s) and then was going to kill him, just doesn't work, IMO. 

If Harry is a Horcrux, why is Voldemort so intent on having him dead? He wanted Quirrell to kill Harry to acquire the Philosopher's Stone.  Diary!Riddle wanted Harry dead.  GoF's graveyard scene speaks for itself.  LV possessing Harry in the Atrium at the MoM so that Dumbledore would kill Harry in an attempt to kill LV, is also, LV wanting Harry dead.  Dumbledore realized then that it wasn't his own destruction LV was after, but Harry's.  

LV wouldn't want Harry dead if he is a Horcrux...that would be destroying himself and making himself that much more vulnerable, IMO, not stronger.  If, in killing Harry, LV recovered the piece of his soul that was inside a Horcrux!Harry, he would still be "a mortal man with a maimed and diminished soul."  LV knows that if he recovers those pieces of soul (if they can be recovered) he will no longer be 'immortal'...he doesn't want that, he's too afraid of death.

Sorry, too longwinded.
