It is possible and I agree it's worth considering.   I'll look at the CDI eletronics casting (which is what those screws hold in place) to see if there is a pathway to generate an inlet and egress for air.  I don't have any good photos of the inside of that casting.  Maybe I can pull that casting off without pulling the engine.  I'll look tonight.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks Paul,
I was able to get an image (attached) of the outside of the casting. With 5e CDI casting removed, does it appear that there is an air flow path that would help ventilate the PMA coils?

I am imagining having a fitting to feed air from the top of the engine on one side (shown in the photo) and allow the exit air on the other side of the casting to exit into the lower engine area.
