Cool beans 
If you just seal up the assembly to keep water out it should be fine- if you wanted to you could encapsulate things, but it isn't really necessary if your solder connections are good. I'd leave it open for a while so it could be tweaked to change values if necessary.
The BS170 won't generate much heat since it's acting as a momentary switch and it shouldn't have problem with temperature if your plastic box isn't in danger of melting where you mounted it.
