As Christopher described, Puppet cannot directly distinguish between the remote directory visible when it is mounted and the mount point directory visible when the remote directory is not mounted. This is an intentional aspect of the Unix architecture and design.
Are you sure that you actually need to manage the mount point's permissions? They do not matter as long as the remote directory is mounted, so perhaps ensuring the remote directory mounted would be sufficient.
