Are you sure you don't need a GFCI breaker for that? If your state is following the 2020 NEC code, it should be.
Your electrician should be the one to fix his mistake, both installing the 60 amp outlet and (possibly) not installing a GFCI outlet.
If you decide to do the 60->50 swap yourself, be very careful to tighten the conductor lugs sufficiently. It may well be more torque than you can apply with a screwdriver. It also should not be your problem.
Good catch! They should, and I don't see any serious-sized wire connected to the 'ground' bus bar on the left. It looks like it might have a small gauge wire either connected to the neutral bus bar or a clamp below(just off the picture). Its possible that this subpanel was installed before they required separate ground/neutral to the subpanel, I suppose.Ask the electrician if the neutrals should be separated from the ground wires. This panel looks like a sub-panel.

ah.... more 'professionals' at work.Someone else had mentioned that to me as well. Will need to have someone come back and address that as well. This was setup by the home builder / electrician. Home is about 3-4 years old. No flags as far as I know by city inspectors or our own inspector at the time of closing.

In fairness I missed that too, but I'm not a professional electrician or inspector.
I'm no electrician but let me take a whack at it also. I say cut the red wire!
But jokes aside, if he's an actual electrician why violate code and leave it up to you to take an unnecessary risk (14-50 on a 60amp breaker)? Breakers are relatively cheap.
Hmmm, some quick web searches found 50A and 40A GFCI and non-GFCI breakers for sale that could be delivered quickly.My understanding is that couldn't locate the correct breaker locally. When I searched online, eaton said availability over the summer. Cooper electronics said availability only in 1 store in the US (1500 miles away).

Perhaps try finding a 40A breaker. This is acceptable with a 14-50 outlet (since there are no *-40 outlets). You can only do 32A EV charging on a 40A circuit, but the Tesla mobile connector that comes with Tesla cars only does 32A charging anyway (as do many third party EVSEs that plug into 14-50 outlets).
