The point which made me sure about who will be the HBP came long
before Snape confessed to be. The handwriting! JK describes it quite
clearly and if you go back to OOP than you can find this description
again in the chapter where Harry breaks into Snape's memories in the
pensive (sorry, I don't have the books with me to quote).
