When I've fitted brake reaction bars, I've always fitted them in such a way as to ensure clearance between the bar and the tyre on full lock. I've also moved the rubbing block outwards by a few mm to get the clearance at the theoretical loss of a bit of steering lock.
My interpretation of the Testers Manual is the exemption (which is actually not specific to Morgans) relates to contact between tyre and chassis. The exemption refers to rubbing blocks rather than chassis fittings.
