I am getting ready to bolt the upper and lower together. I am not sure about the item 47 (water supply tube) connection to item 35 (GUIDE & SEAL, Water tube)- the diagram shows no gasket/seal. But, there is some kind of sealant present that seems like a thick grease or like the consistency of "plumbers putty."

How should this connection be made? Just slip it together as is? Cleanout what is there and slip together? Or cleanout and seal with what?

Thanks

Damn you owe me its after 2AM and have had a bit too much but section 10-33 says if the seal has not been disturbed IE: frigged up twist the tube in. The GOOK I am pretty sure is OMC gasket compound though not called for I and many use it anyway makes it slip in easy and asures a seal.
