So far everything points toward leopard is just a visual het pied, its not linked to the gene, it is the gene. People have claimed to have leopard pieds that produce all leopards (in other words they are super leopards) And so far no one has been able to make a leopard and prove it out not to be "het pied". There were rumors of someone doing it but I couldn't find any facts on it. So as far as I can see, everything points at Leopard and Pied being part of the same complex, same locus different alleles. Leopard is just more visual that het pied. That my story until more info comes in.
