The source material which RoP draws from is Tolkiens manuscripts, which weren't finalised into a finished book.
The story of the Istari differ over time. Tolkiens earlier writing have 5 wizards arriving in Middle Earth all in the 3rd Age, later writing have the blue wizards first appear in the 2nd Age. For example.

He is neither Gandalf nor Saruman.
It would make far more sense if he was Alatar. One of two blue Istari wizards who appeared in ME at that time.
