How about a torpedo? I seriously doubt:

     1) The US would wait 7 months after Russia invaded Ukraine
     2) The US would risk Navy divers for such a petty operation achievable without risking valuable personal
     3) The US would not simultaneously detonate (17 hour delay between? wtf)
     4) President Biden would not have immediately after taken the opportunity to interrupt broadcast and cable programming to remind us how tough he is. 
When you ask yourself who hates the Russians more than anyone else in the world, and when that coincidentally happens to be the same as who benefits economically the most from NS1 & NS2 destroyed, there's only one answer[1], and it isn't Norway, and it isn't Denmark, and it can't be the US. Russia annoys the US, but the US and its citizens do not hate Russia. And US benefits exactly nothing economically from this, and in a global economy, it probably hurts US.

Likely pieces of the torpedo could be found and traced back to American manufacture.

Likely? If Russia spends the considerable resources to send down their own deep sea divers, they can just as easily find trace residues of the C4 or whatever was used and trace that to its origin as well. And how would they trace a Russian torpedo?
