I have done this flight before (last time was 4 years ago though) and I can’t remember what the transit procedure is.
I regularly transit DXB when returning to Australia. Mostly, I board in DXB with more than one amenity kit in my carry-on bags. I collect them along with the F pyjamas to distribute to Africans I visit regularly. I keep them from my inbound journeys and take them in my checked-in luggage on my outbound journeys.
I have been doing this for almost 20 years and not once has it ever been a problem in DXB, including when I boarded EK408 for MEL last September with 7 amenity kits and 2 sets of pyjamas jammed into two grey F bags!
So I feel that chances are you will not have any problem boarding for SYD in DXB with one amenity kit in your carry-on.
