Default Timing Cover Leak Repair

I have a leak from the Timing Cover on my AU11-6 .
Over a year ago I had the Cover off to change the Crank-shaft Oil Seal as I had a leak then. It could have been the Tensioner but anyway that history.
So Ford did the Seal and also the Chain Guides and gave me a new Harmonic Balancer Too.. All Great but... To get the Timing Cover off they loosen the Oil Pan Bolts to get some play' with the Timing Cover ...to-get-it-off, the Crank shaft' . This breaks the seal though of the Oil Pan..The result is difficulty in Sealing' the Pan and the Timing Cover when re-fitting.

My Dilemma is that it's now "Leaking".............#@%$$$&& ****ttttt !!!!

Wiping silastic around the spot is useless.

My Brother suggests some aviation grade paste that he has used at Work.
Anyone had any luck with another remedy, I love to hear it !
