If you use an engine mount as a fairing, it looks like parts inside keep no-drag modifier even if the shroud is detached. So if you hide a capsule inside an upside-down engine mount, you cannot reenter. Take the attached craft, launch it into an orbit with periapsis below 70km (in atmosphere). Drop all stages until only a capsule remains. And you will be orbiting indefinitely. You cannot even deploay a parachute.
Craft parts (in order):
Nose cone
Decoupler (upside-down)
------- (space provided by engine mount fairing end)
parachute
capsule
heatshield
decoupler
engine mount (upside-down, fairing length 1.75m)
fuel tank
etc
