A Shadow Clone could be a fairly decent decoy. The sharingan being able to distinguish b/w original and shadow clones exists only in the manga.

Tobirama took Madara's body for examining, how did the clone stay dead for this long if he did use a shadow clone, last time i check shadow clones dont stay dead when they are created.

Also, the clones disappear when injured severely (atleast that has been shown in naruto's case).

If madara made the clone after using izanagi, didn't tobirama noticed the difference in eyes while examining the body.

Also, how did the izanagi plan work out so smoothly, what if tobirama was standing right next to him when the jutsu activated?

How was hagoromo/kyuubi not able to sense BZ's ominous chakra?
