R44 battery question

Has anyone got an R44 Raven (hyds, no fuel injection) with a battery in the ENGINE compartment, rather than under the console ?

Why do I ask ? If it's in the engine compartment there's better CG flexibility, especially with a porker like me in the flying seat.

The POH says the battery can be in either place, but with no indication of how to tell which S/Ns divide the two configurations.

And if anyone has had theirs moved from the nose to the engine compartment, care to tell how ?
