Or REALLY make it easy (and less "gray"), have him enter the training required in your logbook, sign you off, and get the SIC privileges ay your local FSDO... (FAR 61.55)
(Check with the insurance company too)
#2 is legit but only up to a point...you can't log 100's of hours that way.
#1 is legal but will be questionable in the eyes of employers if you log a lot of it. They know that people don't usually do a lot hood time in jets.
Just get the 61.55 training (it's easy) and log away with no worries.
