What about the Earth's crossing Elenin's Orbital path in October ?
The comet will be above the ecliptic when it passes the orbit of the Earth.

If you check out the colors you will see that the applet colors parts of the orbit different colors to show which parts are above the ecliptic and which are below.

Don't forget that I have already responded to your issue.
There's also the fact that Elenin might not even be passing in front of the Sun. It may just be passing near the Sun. In which case a simple coronagraph would allow one to see it easily.
