You are quite right ^^ He indeed is a classic champagne with Lp - Snowflake pattern in this case - as you stated. The foal pictures are very clear on that, he was born with grey/blue eyes that darkened with age, his mane was dark and the body was a slightly lighter tone. The freckles on his muzzle are the most obvious indicator for champagne - all other dillutions would lack them or make him much lighter in color. The varnish of Leopard complex will progressivly lighten his mane and feathers as well as his body - the areas not affected by varnish will darken to an ebony/dark brown shade.
So all in all you had him figured out correctly, congratz :)
