Use quality RTV with a putty knife so there's "just enough" to create a smooth surface. Then let it nearly set up - nothing ghetto about that.

it is amazing what an oring will seal against some times, i've done nothing and i've also smeared silicone on there, both worked fine, the silicone is more peace of mind tho.
