Simplest answer is to use XSLT 2.0 with
<xsl:for-each-group select="*" group-adjacent="node-name(.)">
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="current-group[1] instance of element(aaa)">
<ol>
<xsl:copy-of select="current-group()"/>
</ol>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:copy-of select="current-group()"/>
</
</
</
For XSLT 1.0 solutions, search under "XSLT positional grouping".
