Neutrik enclosed jacks grounding

I used neutrik enclosed input and output jacks on a recent build. I've got the input jack grounded as I'm supposed to according to the M.B. standard wiring diagram. Do I need to ground the output jack as well? I can't tell if the jack's nut is actual metal, and thus will be grounded by contact with the aluminum enclosure. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Here is a link of the type of jack just in case.

With those you need to ground both jacks, as simple as connecting the output ground to the input ground and... somehow connect the enclosure to circuit ground as well if it's a metal or shielded non-metal enclosure.
