That looks like a sensible way to do it, assuming that your "X-" tag is
a solid guarantee that this really is outgoing mail.

Check the first line of tmda-sendmail; I bet it is
#!/usr/bin/env python
which is a lovely hack used in the Python world to avoid having to
hardcode the path to the Python interpreter. Unfortunately, it's not
100% reliable, and really should not be used in a production
environment. Change it to
#!/usr/local/bin/python
and I bet you'll be fine.
However, given your Exim "pipe" command, I don't really understand why
your kernel is even consulting the #! line. Which OS is this?
