I think the grammar is correct as proposed. You could construct a sentence
of the form:

  ... if it appears in a given place ...

or in a form denoting the complementary condition:

  ... if it appears other than in a given place ...

The usage is whether something appears or otherwise. I don't think you need
to qualify the verb.

But then again, that could just be archaic usage. What do others think?

Cheers,
