That's wrong. This code should be placed outside of the custom-code.

(setq auto-mode-alist
    (cons '("\\.py$" . python-mode) auto-mode-alist))
(setq interpreter-mode-alist
    (cons '("python" . python-mode)
          interpreter-mode-alist))
(autoload 'python-mode "python-mode" "Python editing mode" t)
(custom-set-variables
  ;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom.
  ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
  ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
  ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
)
(custom-set-faces
  ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
  ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
  ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
  ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
 )

As the custom stuff is empty it could even be deleted. But it will be
added at the next customization.
