OK, bear with me...

after reading the first book and seeing all the speculation on how many spartans are left or if there are new ones, I had this thought;

When they took the MC, they replaced him with a clone. If the clone was made from the MC's DNA wouldn't any clones made be able to go through the spartan project? And when the Covenent landed on Reach they might have captured some examples of the spartan armour and if the MC's DNA was recorded somewhere (from the original cloning) then maybe the MC will face a clone of himself in Halo 2, or a clone some of the spartans that died on Reach.

Ok, maybe it's a little farfetched....

It isn't possible. The clone was called a flash clone. I believe it has a life span of about 7 years, and therefor is already long dead. And even if it lived on, the clone would never be able to match up to the skills of the true Master Chief as it hasn't endured the training and augmentations MC has.

That is wrong. It's enhanced covenant tech, and the covenant imitate tech and don't innovate like humans, so they would immitate the MJOLNIR (The covenant even state its better in one of the books)to get the better armor (Thats why they had to shoot the covenant engineer after it fixed the MC's armor).
