If you do choose to ask this on the Q&A, you will need to phrase it very carefully. Usually the more general the better for Q&A questions. Too many specifics and they will answer "we won't rule on the legality of specific designs". Maybe you can word it as "What modifications are considered legal that parts modified from strictly COTS can still be used during the build season?" And then possibly list a few examples. Even then, I don't think it is very likely you will get the response you are looking for.
