I'd say neither. I think there's a case play that addresses face guarding the shooter like this as being legal, but I'm not 100% sure on that.
The correct term is face guarding, not hand checking. Hand checking refers to contact. I hope I never see someone hand check the shooter, because it's likely that person will get an intentional or maybe even flagerant foul for it.
