I got the impression that the gum was merely given as a marker, a 
landmark for Cooper. As for TMFAP is concerned, I like the idea that he 
is supposed to be Leland as he is without BOB, sort of a stunted type of 
soul. After all, BOB has evidently been in charge for quite some time 
now, and Leland wasn't exactly up to snuff as far as emotions go. 
Emotionally and mentally, he was a dwarf. This is shown by his excessive 
grief last season.
Where did Leland go when BOB took over? To another place. So we have the 
Dwarf.
