OP here. Power cord is 50mp at the pedestal end and a 3 prong twist lock at the trailer end. Main breaker in camper is 30 amp. Since the trailer is on a permanent site I'll just continue to use the 50/30 adapter.
The question remains, hypothetically speaking, if I was on the road could I plug into the 50 amp receptacle on the pedestal without damaging my trailer
Are you sure it is 30? Picture might help.
50 amp:

Maybe you want this adapter? https://www.valterra.com/product/mighty-cord-30amp-50-rv-detachable-power-cord/
