when the device pulls through all the Spider-people there's a quick shot of numbered dimensions and 616 was on there.
It isn't him but a close, older approximation.
Peter B has been Spider-Man for 20 years. 616 Peter has been Spider-Man for around 10-15 years in universe, so closer to "Blonde" Peter.
Peter B buried his aunt May, 616 May is still alive.
Peter B and MJ got divorced and while 616 Peters marriage was also annulled it didn't go down quite as mundanely. And it wasn't because Peter didn't want kids.
We also see that Peter B had a Jewish wedding, whereas the 616 wedding was a civil ceremony at city hall.
616 Peter isn't overweight and never owned a Spider-Man branded pizza joint.
Finally and this one is just me, but I took him not acknowledging Gwen as being that he never met or there was no Gwen in his universe.

Both the Peters also draw heavily from the Toby Maguire / Raimi Spider-Man films but both also have mechanical web-shooters instead of organic ones and their Raimiverse flashback scenes have intentional twists on them (the "upside-down kiss scene in one of their flash backs is inverted, with MJ hanging from the fire escape instead of Peter for example) so neither is specifically Raimi Spider-Man either. It seems like they are meant to represent variations of the "Original" Spider-Man but neither is explicitly any film or comic version.
