Jim,

If the solder significantly stiffens the leads then it will also increase the
resonant frequency and reduce the magnitude of vibration for a given level of
excitation, so whether the higher stress concentration is significant is not
immediately obvious. Can't you just re-run the FEA with the new geometry?
