According to LTSpice help:

--- Quote ---.NOISE -- Perform a Noise Analysis
This is a frequency domain analysis that computes the noise due to Johnson, shot and flicker noise. The output data is noise spectral density per unit square root bandwidth.

Do they model only Johnson noise for discrete resistors or also for parasitic resistance in other models, I have no clue.

Kleinstein:
The LTspice noise data are for the output. The NBS circuit has a much higher (x201) amplification. The circuit from Yansi still has quite some noise from R7 (1K) - so for really low noise the resistors should be a little lower. This may requite an additional emitter follower to get more output power. A low gain of only 11 and still very low noise is not an easy/low power combination.

How much noise is included with the parts depends on the model. Not all models include noise. Some of the models for BJTs / JFETs seem to be realistic with some 1/f noise, but not all. Chances are parasitic resistance will also have noise modeled right, but quite a few of OP models do not include noise.
