I checked it out last night.  I was able to use a small mirror from above the engine to observe the upper steering u joint as it turns.  It comes very close to hitting a projection on the exhaust cam cover twice per revolution; once just as you begin a left turn and again just as you begin a right turn.  It did not actually hit, but I can imagine that it would under certain circumstances.  It appears that I need to rotate the engine ccw ( as you look at it from the front of the car).
