I know Paul was an apostle, but I did think the reference in the song was to McCartney.

I remember thinking the same thing, as I’m sure many others did. But it seems the Pope at the time, you know, the one who owned 51% of General Motors, was also named Paul.
Also, given the May 1968 emergency meeting John called to announce to his bandmates that he was Jesus, his “I Found Out ” line might be John mentioning himself, but not really.

I had to Google the General Motors reference, but, yeah, I remember Paul VI but never made the connection.
