Avel actually will provide (free of charge even) belly-bands for their toroids. I bet since Brian orders directly from them, he could speak with them about including them.
After speaking with an engineer at Avel, as Brian said, the first place to be considerate of is on axis with the hole, and the second is the point at which the leads enter and exit the side of the toroid.

I have mounted transformers right under the power supplies with no adverse effects, so you could try no shielding at first before spending a lot of time and money on it. |
