I had thought I checked very carefully for any iteration of words with clear Anglo-American variants (colour/color, defence/defense, etc...) and found none.

do you see any such?

I checked as well and he used no such words. But his syntax was NOT British at all and neither was there even a hint of anything English in the post.

Heck, he could have and probably would have called Cindy's squatting place a "hedgerow", were he really an Englishman. See my point? That IS what a Brit would call that off-road place; yet he never did .

Ah ha...I caught one! He spelled "naught" nought; which is the English of ZERO ! No Brit would use that spelling for NAUGHT !
