Shade & Daylight are out.
The others are kinda getting closer to splittin' hairs. As to an "approach" ... I really like the prospect of utilizing a "known" same-light illuminating two different subjects is the same temperature. The caveat to that .... is it really the same lighting reaching it (AI=AR) and reflecting into your lens. If it is, then that approach can work well (and is one I use with landscapes, etc. where you can't place a card in the scene, etc.).
I worked it from your as shot. Got the pupil to go neutral just fine for adjusting the shadows, then when I started working on the mids on his back that were facing upward (vs. eye facing lateral), as I was warming the mids toward neutral (reducing blue), I saw that I was warming the eye a bit. At this point I was finding I "liked" the warmer look, so I went with it a bit (%) between the two to taste.
I realize that doesn't fully answer your question, but it 's how I went about it on this one.
