Part of the reason we have the coach verfy everyone is legal is to absolve us of responsibility in these cases. We have to prevent them from playing when we see stuff and since we can reasonably see ear, nose, ad eye brow rings we have to inspect for that prior to a game. If they have a tounge, belly button, or "other" piercing ("Coach I can't play I just got a prince albert") that reasonably will be covered from view, then we have to take the coaches word unless we see it. Once we see I, we must act.
I was told a story from a volleyball official last year who had a girl come over to the stand and argued a call. As soon as she started chirping she saw the tounge stud, busted. I guess her coach got a little red on the bottom over it.
Lesson: Keep you trap shut and bad things won't happen.
