No you can’t sili a hectic. You’ll have to get a modder to recess it IF the metal is thick enough.

The sili thing you are looking for is the nozzle. Some parts stores may have them but I doubt it. You may have to buy another tube to get one.

And you couldn’t put them back in? If not and if you have some flowable silicone you could put a tiny bit of that in and the pad on top so that it can stay in.

That’s not really useful information, say if its still going good or not, then it will be useful.
