Great idea, I just systraced isakmpd and it does look for srcid of the local peer, which in my case is FQDN.
Notice that if your FQDN is for example level1.blah.org, the key should be placed as "/etc/isakmpd/private/level1.blah.org" *without* .key extension.

here is the relevant part from systrace:
        native-fsread: filename eq "/etc/isakmpd/private/level1.blah.org" then permit
        native-fsread: filename eq "/etc/isakmpd/private/local.key" then permit
