Yes I think thats the right place. Yes mounting is the way to go. The collected plants I've seen hve teir roots embedded between the paperbark layers.

Its nice to see one mounted and growing so well!!! I've only seen them potted but the literature on them recommends mounting and I've been curious to see how that would look. Very nice specimen.
