No, I would definitely agree that he looks like a teenager in LA's cut-scenes and more child like in the Oracle's in-game cut scenes, art style a side; He is physically more mature looking in LA. Look at Marin in that last picture you posted OB1, she is definitely more of a teenager than child, and Link and Zelda are always the same age in every game.
The other thing is, in the Oracle games, Link is the Hero of Time still, as he has the Mark of the Triforce on his hand and he is riding a younger Epona (same markings and color). Only the Hero of Time has the mark on his hand. in LA, Link is the hero from LttP, as the booklet explains. Not the Hero of Time.
And what do you mean a dream world isn't a "realm"? it is another "world" that exists outside our own, by definition a realm, or plane of existence. A Dream Realm. The Sacred Realm/Golden Land, is a seperate plane of existence hence the word "Realm" in the title, and since the Triforce sent you to these places in the oracle games, one could assume that Link is traveling in to the Sacred Realm, just as he did in LttP and OoT.
also, by stating that "Link has never seen these places before" and "a strange new world" and then adding "he was enveloped in light, and when he awoke..." etc, give you a pretty good idea that he's in the sacred realm right off the bat. In OoT, when you enter the Sacred Realm, you are enveloped in light and brought to a strange place where you are asleep and must awaken.
