You have a good pic in that it looks centered and the rear dropouts and triangle line up good from here.
To my eye, the bars are cocked in the stem, look at the spacing of the bars where they enter the stem on each side. Might be a mismatch that finally manifested itself.
I would meetup with @
Dfrost and @
RiddleOfSteel at their bike co-op for proper C+V evaluation.
Even if this is a frame issue, it should not be life threatening, a good frame builder should be able to make short work of this.
I would encourage you not to consult anyone that does not have steel framebuilding experience.
