We solved that problem by attaching the regulators to the FRK back plate which is with fan control is kept within 0.01C. We did not do it for that purpose but found that we needed some more heat in order to keep the fan in an optimum fan speed. Rb, OCXO and Fan power transistor are on the back plate. Works for us.

No 3-terminal regulator or reference that I know of can run an OXCO (heater and oscillator). What are your voltage and current requirements?
