Yeah, I just got off the phone with the local Toyota service center and they confirmed no TSB exists on this at all. The upgraded part is about $95 from Toyota and about $81 from Subaru. There’s four total in these engines, so for a little under $340, I can pick up all four and upgrade for the peace of mind that it will bring. Plus it lets me get away from the old lady for about 8 hours.

Edit:

After checking all four solenoids for oil leaking just now, I found one of them with oil on the inside of the plug which is a tell-tale sign of the fault with these parts. As the oil has already began to leak into the electrical section, and I have yet to have any fault codes appear, I've caught it in time before it has had a chance to cause complete failure. They're all going to get replaced ASAP.
