Whose head???!!!!
But in seriousness, when I looked at the regs some time ago when I wanted to dispel the idea at casa stevo, I think the distance from the wall is 3x the diameter of the pipe, but only if the pipe is uninsulated and if the wall is covered with/made from combustible materials. A quick google shows plenty of examples where the stand off is less than half of what they fitted yours at. Doesn't even look like they were trying to get around fascia overhang either.
