Default GFCI - New Jersey

My neighbor is selling his house in NJ and was told by a house
inspector that he has to have a GFCI by the stove and by the sink in
his 50 year old Cape Cod house.

The house has NO ground wire on the Romex since it was built.

I was always led to believe that even if you have a GFCI with NO GROUND
WIRE that you have SOME PROTECTION.
In other words, ONLY 2 WIRES - BLACK AND WHITE are connected to the
GFCI.

Would this hookup - only 2 wires and NO ground - meet a NJ home
inspection requirement ??

What about a GFCI BREAKER for the entire circuit ???
Pass inspection ???

TIA
