this from phrasefinder:
"The allusion is more likely to be to someone who is so similar to another as to appear to have been spat out of his mouth. That idea, if not the exact phrase, was in circulation by the end of the 17th century, when George Farquhar used it in his comic play Love and a bottle, 1689:
'Poor child! he's as like his own dadda as if he were spit out of his mouth.'"
Hope this is of further help in your quest Sano.
