No, silicone is rated D for butane exposure.
If silicone was good for butane exposure, don't you think I would be using these platinum cured gaskets in my MKIII Terpenator closed loop system?
Really dislike utter disinformation.
This is the rubber I have used before. Worst part is the powder after, wear gloves. It will fill your fingerprints for weeks. Trust me.

I still have a few more little odds and ends to get, but I've essentially bought all the big stuff. When all is said and done, total expenses will likely be around $8-9k overall. Put in perspective, I bought my 2007 RX8 for $9,500 in 2013 with 34k original miles on it under a salvage title; it's probably worth half that much now. So yeah, my SC kit is worth way more than my car lol. Oh well, so goes the life of the obsessive modder/HP junkie. I still love it. I can not WAIT to get his thing installed!
This is probably what you're looking for
Looks like an older version of this gasket tool. <https://www.amazon.com/Trim-Lok-365-000-Installation-Locking-Gaskets/dp/B00NL4275S&gt;
I am in Miami and have two Philips Hue white ambience bulbs in external enclosures so not 100% exposed to elements and although summer in Miami is 90% humidity there are no adverse effects in the last year.
However, I did consider adding these when i first installed them.

Make your own, all kinds of materials are available in sheet form, and gasket cutting tools are everywhere, including harbor freight, for cutting perfect circles......
