One caution on using silicone. When using it on mating surfaces of oiling system parts, use sparingly. I had a friend who used silicone on the timing cover of his 1956 Harley Panhead and consequently plugged the oil passage to the crankshaft. The engine showed oil pressure, but no oil was getting to the crank and bearings. The engine seized and split the crankcase.
