Gandalf and Saruman are not the right pair, though they do look alike.
Some hints, and more to come if needed. 1. This quote is from LOTR. 2. The speculation is done by a hobbit, about two non-hobbits.

Maybe Pippin, about Beregond and Faramir, maybe?
(Also, LOTR has three books)

Keep in mind too that there is a passage that has the speculation in it very explicitly. I cannot recall from memory, but I don't believe Pippin ever suggests Beregond and Faramir are related.

Neither can I. LOTR has three books, and each book is split into two more books...

All of the characters involved are major characters (ie not some obscure Brandibuff Bobbins at Bilbo's party or something like that). I will tell you that this speculation is said out loud, not just thought in the narration. Said by a hobbit, about two non-hobbits (also major characters). And if I give you any more info right now, in return I would be asking for you to quote the exact passage instead of just paraphrasing the event.

Okay. I will give the others until morning to make some guesses before I start guessing in earnest.

There’s something rattling around in my head so they’re mistaken for kin... I feel like Faramir is compared to Gandalf at some point but I don’t think it amounts to thinking kinship.
But something else. Aragorn and one of the men of Gondor Boromir? At Rivendell? By frodo
