Say you realised you knew him on spotting his profile, tell him you are new to site so thought you'd say hi. Keep it light and friendly. And see how he responds. He may just say hi back which is fine. But he may suggest meeting up. Don't over think it. Just be casual.

 Dating sites are remarkably unreliable. If I were you I would use a carrier pigeon or a message tied to an arrow. (I jest) There is also the time-honoured way of asking a mutual friend to intercede. Otherwise if you want to continue with the dating site then both your suggestions would do perfectly.
