If it's Unix it depends on the variety, but usually no space is needed.
As far as I know, on any Unix, Linux or other POSIX system, the presence
or absence of a space between the #! and the path is irrelevant.
So far as I know you are right. One thing nobody has mentioned is that
the presence of a space between the # and ! will usually (always?) not
work. I have been caught out by that before...
ie
#! /bin/sh
#!/bin/sh
will both work
# ! /bin/sh
# !/bin/sh
will not.
