Well, Tone, I think you should rather check the pensieve scene in OotP
for Snape's handwriting. I don't have the book with me, but I'm
positive that it is described when Harry dives into Snape's pensive.
He looks over the shoulder of Snape-the-teenager, who is taking his
OWL test. If my memory serves me right Snape's handwriting is there
described as small and cramped, which is more or less the wording used
in HBP for the writing in the potions book. 
For me at least the handwriting was an important clue towards Snape as
the HBP.
