 Lessons Learned from 40 Years of Coverup
There are no documents which prove that Lee Harvey Oswald was an agent of U.S. intelligence.  But it you look at his friends, he was either an agent or was being surrounded and watched by those who were.
Earlier in this session on p.193, Counsel J. Lee Rankin remarked that "We have an explanation there in the autopsy that probably a fragment came out the front of the neck," something which definitely does not appear anywhere in the autopsy report of record [CE 387, reproduced in Warren Report, p.538].
Both cables used the name Lee Henry Oswald, which is the name under which the Oswald 201 file was opened by CIA in 1960; the incorrect middle name is unlikely to be a clerical error, and is more likely to be one more mechanism related to "need to know" information protection.
