Is there some sort of connection between the 13 planes and the 13 dragonmarks - and if so, which book is that detailed in?

I don't think there are details out yet, but the number 13 is reoccurring through out Eberron; 13 Dragonmarks, 13 planes, 13 moons, for example.

More more specifically, thirteen minus one ... a lost Mark, a lost moon, a lost Dwarven clan ..

I'm reasonably certain that this came about because 13 is a 'Baker's Dozen' ... and a Mr. Baker wrote the setting. :)

Ya know ... I think that you are on to something here ... something big.

Yup, Baker's Dozen because the baker makes 13 then takes one for himself.

The question now is... where has he stashed that moon, dragonmark, and dwarven clan?

Well, at least we know that Dal Quor has been shoved out of Eberron's orbit to a permanent remote position. Interestingly, that's the same time when one of Eberron's moons disappeared.

As the Dreaming Dark has shown us, calling anything "permanent" is for yellow-bellied sissy quiters. :P

Well, if they don't solve their little riedran/khorvairian problem quickly, they themselves are not exactly permanent.

While we're at it, there are also 66 quori spirits that inhabit the Kalashtar. 6+6=12, with the 67th one being lost (Taratai, the first one).
