Hi Jon

I’m a believer in silicon gaskets and yes I have had to tighten nuts and check tappets, but only once so far.

I doubt you could get the external joint clean enough for silicon to stick under the oil pressure no matter how small this is.

IMHO live with the leaks or dismantle and do the job properly.

Cheers

Howard
