There's plenty of probable cause in this case, namely that she told him he's the father and took him to all the baby doctor visits.

His statement that the deceased told him he was the father is a bit self-serving. I would think a stronger statement would be from her to third parties stating that he was the father.

Try to pay attention to the FACTS of the case; there is plenty of incidental evidence while she was alive that she had told him he was the father.

Until he brought up the fact that the drugs she was using might hurt HIS baby, things were fine.

That occurred. Forget who.
