Illegal pitch = delayed dead ball.
Runner leaving early = dead ball.
Illegal pitch occurred first. Offense gets the choice of the result of the play or enforcement of the illegal pitch penalty (because not all runners safely advanced).
I assume the offense will take the penalty (ball on batter and runner gets a base).
I don't know why people keep trying to complicate these plays.
