From my understand I would usually get a formale notice if I'm the accused in an investigation. Since they didn't know where to deliver it I didn't get anything. I asked them for a specific URL but he said that he can't disclose details of the investigation.

__MS__ .. since the case officer is not willing (and can understand it to a degree since he can't ID you), - to provide any information and they do wish to proceeed with an enquiry - you really need a lawyer to represent you and liase with the law and provide any data that will establish you are not "associated".
Who knows.. anything can happen during an enquiry, but until specific charges are levied against you - there is no "offense" to answer. However, any reasonable cooperation (lawyer can decide that), towards clearing you has got to be a good thing.
Also seriously doubt that you will have any immediate problem when you go back home unless there is a warrant issued for your arrest (again, there has to be formal charges filed for the basis of issuing that warrant).
Other aspects are... much as you said, it is not every law enforcement officer who can understand net-related issues (this can actually be to your great advantage in subsequent court hearing), but, don't know your country - there is a fair chance the matter may be referred to an expert agency. This *could* help in seeing a quick resolution if there is little foundation for the alleged charges.
Can understand your concern over CP - it's not exactly a matter anyone in the adult biz would like to have labelled on them.
I'd definately contact a lawyer and provide him will all information you may possess - then sit down and take as long as it needs to write a full and comprehensive brief, complete with dates, anyone involved blah, to allow him to get the overall picture. Lawyers are only as good as the brief's their clients provide.
