Does event.src_path returns a string? If so you can use the startswith method of the string class to skip over the images you don't want. For example:

elif event.event_type == 'created':
            # Take any action here when a file is first created.
            print(event.src_path)
            
            # Check if this filename starts with "__" and execute the next block
            if not event.src_path.startswith('__'):
              img = Image.open(event.src_path)
              for result in engine.classify_with_image(img, top_k=3):
                print('---------------------------')
                print(labels[result[0]])
                print('Score : ', result[1])
            # else do nothing
