Uhm...Yes it does...
Just after the STATISTICS section you should have (by default):

My mistake, it sure is there, but I never noticed it :(

NP...note that those numbers are just the amount of successfully taped DLEs, so, they can be a little misleading if say they say something like 33GB (of a 40GB tape) if the next DLE it wanted to put on the tape was say 8GB.

In the NOTES section you find the value where Amanda bumped into EOT:


USAGE BY TAPE:
  Label         Time      Size      %    Nb
  DAILY49       1:55  2648712k   68.9    35

NOTES:
taper: tape DAILY49 kb 3944576 fm 36 writing file: No space left on device
  driver: going into degraded mode because of tape error.


This is a 4 Gbyte DDS2 tape, and amanda bumped into EOT near the
expected value, 3944576 kb (while writing file 36).
The successful backups take 2648723 kb.
(And yes, the failed backup was 1.5 Gbyte, too large for that gap.)
