I'm not psychic GDC, just give me a straight answer. I can't determine if x part is legal if I don't know what the official definition of this is.
The web page pointed to in that Q&A specifically describes an electric solenoid valve actuator. It has components that aren't part of a generic solenoid.

The "official definition" of an electric solenoid actuator is pretty simple and reasonably obvious. A solenoid consists of an electromagnet and an armature that moves to provide a mechanical output when the electromagnet is energized.

If you tell us what "x" is, many of us will be able to tell you why it is or is not legal according to the robot rules.
