FAA and customs ramp check

Hope someone can shed some light on this and apologizes if this is a rhetorical question, I'm asking for a friend who's currently flying around the US time building.
He has dual passports, french and Italian, currently flying around the US doing long XC to see more of the united states and to time build.
On his FAA license it states nationality:french
But he has his Italian passport with him, not his french which he left in Italy.
Will he have problems if he gets ramp checked and they see on his license it states french but he's showing them an Australian passport?

From my understanding it shouldnt be a problem and what it states in the far aim is to provide your pilot license and a government issued form of ID (passport/drivers license etc) but nothing stating it has to be of the same country that states on your pilot license.

What is your insight? Thank you in advance for your help.

Safe flying
