The reference I was using (J/R) stated 6.08c, 7.04d, and 7.07 to rule on this play. It clearly stated that the runner not stealing on the pitch must return to his TOP base. They were all considered defensive (catcher's) interference, so I'm not sure why there might be different penalties invoked.
Also, you DO have to consider continuous action (if there is any) because it is a delayed dead ball until all action stops.
The back of the book has a list of what they call "inaccurate" rules and 7.07 is included, if that means anything.
