Glad you agree with Tonks that Remus is being ridiculous. :-)
Yes, I can't imagine that Sirius wouldn't be terribly, painfully aware of exactly who Harry is, and that he is very much not just James... I admit that canon does present Sirius as rash and a bit irresponsible, egging Harry on to do adventurous stuff, or to hang out with Sirius, at the expense of safety or sense. But he also often gives Harry very smart, sensible, fatherly advice, so maybe it balances out?
