Of course there is such an RFC. RFC 6409 refers to RFC 5321 which describes the content of the Received header in section 4.4. It includes the IP address from which the message was received. If, perhaps, you are wondering if there should be an RFC that updates that advice to say to do something else, that's totally unresolved, since nobody yet has made a plausible argument of what to change and why there would be an overall benefit from doing so. Until we look at the actual costs and benefits, it's grossly premature to propose any changes.
