Yes.

The passages from the handbook and manual that you've posted do not supersede the rule. If the initial contact is not with the helmet, the block is legal and helmet contact is incidental. That's what we look for, and that's how we call it. If you're not satisfied with that, you'll need to talk to the rules committee.

Do you really think that it's impossible for a player to be injured on a legal play?
