Yes, Leonor would be a better match for him (dynastically speaking). It is very unlikely that his ultra-Catholic family would favor a marriage to a Protestant princess and, in any case, marrying a future Orange-Nassau queen, for historical reasons, might not go well in Belgium as their children would be in the line of succession to the thrones of both Belgium and the Netherlands.
I don't give much weight to those rumors though. It may be like when Prince William was frequently matched with Madeleine of Sweden although they didn't even know each other.
When Claus-Casimir marries Princess Elisabeth, naturally he will request the Dutch Government
not to offer a Bill of Consent for his marriage to Parliament. Without an Act of Consent, Claus-Casimir and his offspring are no longer successors in the Netherlands. Problem solved.
Another article on Gabriel of Belgium x Catharina-Amalia of the Netherlands:
Their angle is the Decree Nr 5 from 1830 which forbids unions with anyone from the House of Orange-Nassau. When it comes to an engagement, without any doubt that Act will be repealed. It is not 1830 anymore (the first year of the secession of the Southern Netherlands).

And the newspaper De Morgen also about the Decree Nr 5 of 1830:

Declaration of the National Congress on the perpetual exclusion of the House Orange-Nassau from all power in Belgium (Decree No 5 of November 24, 1830)
On behalf of the Belgian people,
The National Congress declares that the members of the House Orange-Nassau are, in perpetuity, excluded from any power in Belgium.
Declaration of the National Congress on the independence of the Belgian people and the exclusion of the House Orange-Nassau (24 februari 1831)
The National Congress,
Declares that it -as a constituent body- wishes to continue the Decrees of November 18 and 24, 1830, relating to the independence of the Belgian people and the exclusion, in perpetuity, of members of the House Orange-Nassau from all power in Belgium.
Entrusts the executive power with the execution of this Decree.
