Sorry, I honestly couldn't find anywhere that says it's his own hand! Also, earlier in the story as I mentioned, Peyne recounts a vague half-memory of Peter St John visiting him with something in his hand. In part 12, the voice says 'And I finally see what it's holding' - which also leads me to presume that this disembodied voice may well be composed in part of Peyne, who has at last filled in that gap in his memory. Just my reading of it anyway; as I say I may be wrong.
Something else just occurred to me about zzzenith.com too (which I really liked; though I know it wasn't for everyone). Apart from the question as to who would be so fecking stupid as to allow the Chimaera to be sliced in half, does the curious last line of the story mean everybody died? I know it's deliberately ambiguous.
One mystery that I recently did solve though was where Zenith and St John's final conversation was taken from. I kind of guessed it was a quote from somewhere, then found this. It seems to be very well-known, but not to me before now:
