It is my understanding that originally the TR4 solenoid was mounted about
where you describe and then (at some point) was moved up out of there
because of possible effects of heat.

here's a pic of the solenoid in that spot:  http://goo.gl/Su3udD

I have experienced no problems with having it in that location.

I do not know the change point offhand.
