Icelandic heads are sometimes small, sometimes large! I don't think there's a general rule about what size bit they take. Ljufur could wear a 5 inch; Charm's mother only a 4 ½. Do you have different size bits to try in his mouth? For a snaffle, I would suggest a double jointed mouthpiece (not the single jointed), something like a french link (not Dr. Bristol), eggbutt or D-ring.
