IMDB.com doesn’t show that he was in the 2008 miniseries: Peter Capaldi - IMDb
But this looks an awful lot like him, to the right, starting at 2:33: - YouTube
Google has nothing on it that I can find. What say you?

That seems to me more likely to be John Keating playing Timothy Pickering, even though Pickering was only Postmaster General at the time, however, it was a Cabinet position, and Washington was famously was closer to his Cabinet than his Vice President in Adams. Keating is credited at the IMDB for the Unite or Die episode which I believe is the episode from which that video comes from.
Here’s a later episode a few years down the line where Adams fires Messrs. McHenry and Pickering where Keating has some lines. Oddly, Keating is uncredited for The Unnecessary War episode which covers Adams’ presidency. Presume that means Pickering must have some lines elsewhere in Unite or Die if you have it available to check out the full thing.
Sorry, but no one in that looks even remotely like him.
Yes, you’re quite right: http://i.lv3.hbo.com/assets/images/series/john-adams/character/timothy-pickering-1024.jpg. Thanks!
Fun fact: Timothy Pickering invented the duck face!
