If I read 680.62(B) or 680.26(B)(3) it sure sounds like the spout should be bonded. I suppose you have to have the plumber stub it out far enough in the back in metal for a clamp if there is no lug.
add 680.43(D)(4)ex gives a little different spin but since the spout is above the water line it is more likely to become energized.
