I mean I thought it was entirely possible that Takeuchi had made some new/recent statement about it now that people are generally more aware of gender diversity. It would have been news to me, but cool to know! There is absolutely nothing wrong with nb!Haruka (and Takeuchi confirming that she is a girl does not mean Haruka cannot also identify as a man i.e., be bigender).

But let's just say I've been around too long in too many fandoms to accept "it happened in the 90s" and/or "in the original Japanese" claims without a source, because a) I was there back then too, and b) I know how easy it is to try to pass off a headcanon as canon this way to a newer/younger/(more credulous) audience, particularly with popular fanon. If it is something they would already like to believe (as I'm sure a gender diverse person would, Haruka is awesome), they aren't going to check to see if it's actually true.
