A friend of mine has a -3 standing with the Gal federation. He said he's gotten shot at by Federation sentry towers in .4 fed space, but will he still get attacked if he goes into high sec Gal space to begin mission running for them?

With only -3 standing I doubt he's been shot at by the gate ships.
He'll be fine until he hits -5 or lower (after Diplomacy), but he may have problems talking to agents because of his low standing.
As I remember, agents will stop talking to you if you drop below -2 faction, regardless of your corp or agent standing.

This is something I'm also curious about. Does the automatic -5 standing to Gallente due to being a Caldari matter much? Or can a caldari character reach just as high of standing with Gallente as a native could?

You never get an automatic -5 standing due to being of the opposing race.
Your faction standing only drops if you shoot faction ships in missions or by derived standing changes (ie your Caldari faction standing goes up, your Gallente and Minmatar standing goes down as consequence).
Anybody can get a high standing with any faction that has storyline agents, provided you never drop below -2, as agents from that faction will stop talking to you below that point.
I'm not 100% sure that the pirate factions have storyline agents, but I know that Concord and Interbus don't have any usable agents or storyline agents respectively.

Traing diplomacy will save the day.
With Diplomacy V you can go anywhere in Empire, even if you've got a really bad standing (Diplomacy turns bad standing into better standing).
You might not need Diplomacy V, maybe a couple of levels would get you high enough to start running missions. Once you run a couple of Gallente storylines you'll be OK again.
Mind you, your Caldari standing will drop if Gallente rises.
Cheers

With Diplo V can you visit an opposing faction with -10 standing? Does it turn it into -4.99 or something so you can fly in without getting chased around?
Thanks.

I believe it will stop you getting shot, I can't vouch for whether it will allow access to agents.
I've only got to almost negative 6 with Caldari on one of my chars, I was able to talk to a low quality level 1 agent......so I haven't tested a really terrible standing.

Thanks.
Doing the number crunching, with Diplomacy 5, you can drop to -8.73 and still enter that faction's space (Diplomacy 5 will alter it to -4.99).
Bear in mind that the faction navy ships are killable in a decent ship, although they don't drop anything good.
If you're looking for agents, the lowest you can drop is -4.98 (Diplomacy 5 will change it to -1.99).

Diplomacy 4 is often enough.
If you take your caldari standing too low by working for the gallente, you can try working for the amarr, it worked fine, my caldari standing is raising.
