Before Winter's Heart - Archive Only: Is Olver Gaidal Cain?

Yes. Min saw images of both a grown up man and a kid in Birgitte's aura, which flickered back and forth. Robert Jordan would not introduce a character like Olver if he wasn't important, so it makes sense. That and the fact that there is a time distortion in Tel'aran'rhiod which explains any age complications.

I think you have misunderstood the time distortion possibilities. Jordan makes allowance for 10 hours to 1 hour or the other way around. What you are suggesting is a distortion of 7 or 8 years which is highly unlikely. Unless Jordan were to say that the soul of a hero isn't per se "born", instead, injected at the moment the pattern sees fit...but I believe Birgitte mentions birth so I don't see that as a possibility.
