Peter was not evil and he wanted Wendy more than her brothers. I do not think we have met Peter yet. I don't think he is Henry because the known Fairytale characters stay true to their lineage in the stories. Peter Pan ran away, he was not abandoned by his mother. Felix says that Peter Pan never fails so he is present. It is not said that the shadow is PP but it could be interpreted that it is! I guess we'll find out in a few months :) Talestold does make a point about the ambiguity of the shadow's identity. I believe that it is possible that the Shadow and Peter are different entities, but both are still evil; Felix (if that is the Lost Boy's name) claims that Peter Pan never fails, while he places Baelfire with all of the other boys they keep hostage on the island. The fact that he does this while pointing out that he is working for Pan does indeed suggest that Pan is evil in the OUAT multiverse. Unless some theories, like Peter being possessed, are to be believed. Personally, however, I'm hoping Pan is both evil and unredeemable, because I really like that twist.

Henry could become Pan. Rumplestiltskin was a number of different identities, too, including the Beast and the Crocodile, and Cora was the Queen of Hearts and the miller's daughter. So I believe it's possible that other characters could play multiple roles too.
