It’s hard to say from that photo as nothing seems to be perfectly level. Any tiny variation from level in azimuth will show up like a sore thumb in a mirrored reflection. I assume that there is azimuth adjustment on your arm?
Is the anti-skate zero’d? That will of course apply some force to the cantilever. I would take the cart off the head shell and take a look with a loupe with the cartridge on it’s back stylus facing up, there’s too many set up factors the be conclusive from your photo.

ouchMy other thought is this, do you think your system is good enough to pick any error this cartridge will show?
