Look in all 8 Volumes for several mentions of Morihaus. Scan through all of them to find the hints.

There are definitely more hints in the books that Pelinal just might be the Shezarrine, and less for Morihaus, but "might" is still the key-word here.

Other than those books, there's even a section in this link that I think suggests it in some way: Michael Kirkbride's Posts | The Imperial Library (Look for the section "On the *most powerful* being")

Morihaus is listed above Pelinal (Most powerful in the order from Talos all the way down to Pelinal, the least powerful).

^While this does not make it obvious that Morihaus is the Shezarrine, he's still more likely than Pelinal to be the one.

(Edit): In any case, a Lore-studied fan of TES can only decide for him/herself that Pelinal may be a Shezarrine. It's not obviously true.

I've drawn my own conclusion that it is Morihaus who is the Shezarrine, and Pelinal is just another powerful Hero (who may in his own way be "taking the blame" of being a Shezarrine on himself rather than let Morihaus, one whom he loves as family, be the accused; metaphorically speaking). Morihaus wasn't a Shezarrine, Morihaus was a demi-god created by Kyne.
