If you make them components you can find them by name, or attributes you might attached to the definition or instances etc...
Using >=6 connected faces [as a 'solid'] could return almost anything from a box of paper-clips, through a TV set or Bed to a 20 storey office building ?
Please be a bit more explicit with what is is you are trying to do...
