Not sure why it's there (I'm sure Eric S. will enlighten us)
but you can get rid of it with :padline no.

and there is also the :shebang parameter to specify the shebang, so

#+begin_src sh :tangle x.sh :shebang #!bin/sh :padline no

echo done

#+end_src

will give you the expected file x.sh. No idea why it is not enabled in your config.
