GFI generally recommended for wet locations. Most engine rooms have potential of being a "wet" location. Probably not a bad idea, regardless of what ABYC recommends. you don't have any "upgrades" for safety reasons that are not recommended by ABYC?
I consider most codes, whether building or ABYC as minimum acceptable practice, not the point to stop going better. Just my humble opinion.
