The chunin exam OVA is not canon, and it would make no sense for SM to be restricted for the exams.SM is up for grabs for everybody.Even those with kekkei genkai have more of an "unfair advantage" than SM. In other cases things are really unfair compared with SM. Look at Kiba. He literally brought his dog to the exams.
