Steve,
         I think you have the right idea.  EZ builders with air cooled 
engines use a similar trick for baffles.  See CSA newsletters. Place a 
piece of fiberglass cloth cut to the shape that you wand on the saran wrap 
and wet it out with the red silicon.  place the whole thing where you want 
it to seal the gap.  then remove the saran wrap.
