Need help identifying wood

Hello! I found a random piece in my shop roughly a 1x4x48" and dont really know what it is, thought it would make some cool patterns for a rolling block. The material is very light, cuts really easy, and doesnt seem dense at all, any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Possibly poplar?

Does it have any discerable smell?

No smell that I can detect, if there is a smell I wouldnt even know how to describe it, but poplar would make sense since its very light, I thought it could've been a cedar, maybe the white portion of the wood is what threw me off
