I think neither.

I've noticed the surprised look on Roth's face, and the "caught by surprise" inflection in his voice when he says "Why...the Rosato Brothers".
I always thought that he was scared when Michael asked, since it was known (Willi Cicci lived to tell the tale) that the Rosatos did it. Roth wasn't so much surprised as he was nervous that Michael was suspicious.
