I have a plumbing issue

I would cut the spout off with oscillating saw and get access to the inside. Can get some penetration oil where it is needed and unscrew it.

Take a screwdriver and break that drywall mud and see if you have a set screw under it. Just do it easy so as not to puncture the copper tubing shouldn't be that hard to break it up

Paying for it now. In retrospect I don't think a rear entry would solve this issue though.

Are you sure? LoL

certainly would be safer (on the pipes if I was too aggressive) than a hand grinder.

as the issue is on the outside of the wall and not in the wall, yup
