I don't think there is. What are you thinking of? All of userland is not GPL licensed, I don;t even think any is LGPL, so I don;t think there is any GNU there.

In fsf writing about it:

  Android is very different from the GNU/Linux operating system
  because it contains very little of GNU. Indeed, just about
  the only component in common between Android and 
  GNU/Linux is Linux, the kernel.
