NPM shows AWS nodes as Physical hardware

We are running NPM 12.6 and trying to configure the Cloud monitoring plugin. We gave it a cloud account and it can successfully retrieve all instances and components.

The problem is when we want to monitor a cloud instance as an Orion node to get more visibility at the OS level, the node is successfully discovered and associated to the cloud instance, however it shows as a Physical hardware instead of Virtual which is messing up our inventory and some reports.

where does the Hardware Type come from and how can we change it?
