Actually metallic hydrogen is believed to exist at its center. As to an actual surface I don't think any measurements have been made to infer its existence.
In astrophysics we learn that the surface of a star increases in density as exp(minus r/r0) which seems a neat surface but is just gas getting very compressed. The existence of a surface implies a discontinuity in density.

Jupiter' atmosphere contains, hydrogen,helium, traces of water vapor, ammonia, and sulfur. The core is made of rocky material and silicates making up three percent of the planet's total mass

Yes. Its core.
(if the earth is covered in clouds it doesn't appear to have a solid surface either, does it? ;) )

It's core is believed to be metallic hydrogen so yes, way deep inside.

no its a gas giant with a metallic liquid center . I cant remember the name of the metal in the liquid . I think its either iron or mercury
