Added comment:

Elohim (Angel of YHWH) is our Creator. While the Angel of the Lord is God (Elohim) manifested in human form, this statement implies that it was God in "human form, as an angel" that created man, and that that human form's name (identification) is Elohim.

While scripturally it is a stretch, it is not outside of the realm of possibility. And, yes, God does have a "form". See Isaiah 6 and Danial 7 & 8 - and implied in Gen 3:8
