A quick search of “touch-hole alignment” tells me that an imaginary line drawn across the flat top of pan should intersect center of hole. That’s ballpark, as it sounds like there are differing opinions. Do a search and you’ll see what I mean!

Your touch hole looks high and some forward. Given that the breech needs to go back against the wood and down you shouldn't have a problem. Ideally the touch hole should be the sunset position. Centered in the pan and half way along the line of the top of the pan. It doesn't have to be perfect to work. If you get a little low you can always grind the flash pan deeper.
