I think your mechanic was being a bit zealous about the chain bag but it
wouldn't hurt to move
it elsewhere if you can find a place to put them.

Regarding where people put things I think you'll find a hoge-poge of ways
people organize things in
their vans/campers.   Unless you're an organization freak then you probably
will find your own way
of keeping things where you want them.   You kind of  have live in the van
for a while to see what works for you.
What works for one person may not work for another.   You'll end up keeping
things that you use more often at hand and the rest will be well hidden
when you finally need them...   Trust me, I know...   :)
