New seal. Take the silicone to your house, not the boat.<br />Might be able to give you a part number for the seal if only we had a clue as to what you are working on.

Re: Gimbel housing sealer

new gaskets,clean surfaces,no sealer. if you feel better use bellows adhesive to secure the large oring inside the gimbal and perfect seal on the gasket, you may hate it at the next drive service.<br /> leave the silly-cone at the fun house.
