The beginning of “XCF” sounds similar to the beginning of “Exit”.

With “a” vs “an”, the pronunciation is more important than the spelling.

I know, hence my question about the pronunciation. If I had thought the spelling was more important, the “X” would have settled it so I wouldn’t have asked.

You say "a exit"?
