What do you think and say about metal downspout within 4' and metal guttering/roof drip edge within 8'6" as depicted? Download Attachment:  Metalgutterpool.JPG94.93 KB
The downspout requires bonding.

(5) Metal Wiring Methods and Equipment. Metalsheathed
cables and raceways, metal piping, and all fixed
metal parts except those separated from the pool by a permanent
barrier shall be bonded that are within the following
distances of the pool:
(1) Within 1.5 m (5 ft) horizontally of the inside walls of
the pool
(2) Within 3.7 m (12 ft) measured vertically above the
maximum water level of the pool, or any observation
stands, towers, or platforms, or any diving structures
Yep, in this picture it should be bonded.
