Gaius Baltar was just a guy driven by his ego, greed and lust. His desire (and apparent love) for Six was enough for this ethically-challenged man to give away the Colonial secret codes that allowed the Cylons to launch their surprise attack, nearly wiping out human existence in a system far, far away, over 150,000 years ago.
Throughout the series, Baltar was just this man. A man of greed, lust and excess. A man who also was able to see what, essentially, were angels - or some sort of emissaries of the entity the Cylons believed as The One True God, or the collection of gods as worshipped by the Colonials.
At the end of the series, Baltar and Six went off on their own to form what we can guess is the basis of an agrarian community, based on Baltar being raised on a farm and taught farming by his farmer father.
Baltar was merely a man with whom God's angels, in form of Baltar and Six, appeared to, influenced and relied upon to protect the cylon hybrid child, Hera and deliver her to safety at the right moment.
As the angels said to Baltar at the end of the series, they would never see them again.
Baltar is not and never was a Cylon.
