Supes' origin story has been retold and retold countless times, but my recollection of the comics from my misspent youth is that the Kents pretended that Martha had been pregnant and had a "surprise" baby. They never legally adopted Kal-El/Clark.

No, they never did that. Was Martha supposed to hide her pregnancy?

Superman's origin story is that the Kents found him, adopted him, and raised him as their own. There are no parallels to today's illegal immigrants.
