Heh!  Just did a web search.  Turns out SH even appears on The
Complete Mike Oldfield compilation.  He was in the band in 1983
... along with a drummer named Simon Phillips (seems to be a
recurring theme, being in bands with other Simons who are
drummers :-)

This page:
        http://www.static18.tubular.eu.org/ARTISTS/JOERN.HTM
has a picture captioned:
        Simon House, Mike Oldfield, Simon Phillips, Phil
        Spalding. Hamburg St.Pauli Stadion 14.06.83
Not that I can make out either of the faces I might actually
recognize...

And a long-way-around link (discovered on a Voiceprint CD listed
on the artist-shop.com site):
  - Simon Heyworth (yet another...) produced Tubular Bells
  - He played on a record called Tarka with Anthony Phillips and
    Harry Williamson
  - Williamson has played in Gong, Mother Gong, and Nik Turner's
    Sphynx
