Only unlawful presence bar doesn't apply. Permanent bar applies if he was in US illegally for 1 year or more and re-entered illegally.
The bar for deportation splits in two main ways:
1. If you get ordered deported and leave: 10 years (no age exemption)
2. If you get ordered deported and get deported, as in ice puts you on plane or otherwise throws you out: permanent
So depending on the circumstances he might need an I-212 before anything else. He should definitely FOIA EOIR, CBP, and USCIS and see what the hell they actually have.
