"Paul as the author of Hebrews?" Do you attempt to refute Peter's statement that Paul was the author of the epistle to the Hebrews?
There are many reasons why Paul omitted his salutation in that particular epistle, but one of the most obvious is that he was particularly hated by the jewish establishment, and had his courier been apprehended, he would likely have been killed and the letter destroyed. The style of writing is clearly that of Paul also.

Where does Peter say that Paul is the author of Hebrews?
Also, as to your contention that the style of Hebrews is the same as that of Paul's epistles, I would have to argue against that.
