According to this source, it was pure oxygen, at least in his suit. The capsule was another matter.

From the description it would seem that the capsule had air, changed to oxygen for the EVA.  It didn't mention whether or not the air was brought back into the capsule or not, but as it described the suit was filled with oxygen.

The stuff about Leonov was primarily an irritant though also a red flag.  I am more interested in their accuracy or otherwise about his Apollo comments.
