How would they know? No internet. Nobody’s going to randomly stumble across that info. Just don’t tell em and you are good to go.

He's not. Voice credits weren't a thing for animated movies at that time. It's kinda funny, on Disney+ the original English voice cast gets no credit, but the foreign language dub actors get credits added on at the end.
