Issue in checking tauola when madraph + pythia #3702

Hi @efeyazgan

We have issues validating a case where we use madraph + pythia + tauola, see an example at EXO-Run3Summer23wmLHEGS-00568

We get the error msg from here

error_conc.append("For MG5_aMC requests, the concurrent mode for GEN production should be turned on. Please convert Pythia8HadronizerFilter to Pythia8ConcurrentHadronizerFilter in the fragment")

but the tauola is getting checked later in the code
if "Pythia8HadronizerFilter" in fragment and ("evtgen" in fragment.lower() or "tauola" in fragment.lower() or "photos" in fragment.lower()):

So I think the code needs some reordering, could you please have a look?

FYI
