Please develop something, as a flat plate with silicone will eventually leak as the seal is not something designed to last. All manual trans cars will eventually seep from here. Its not a matter of if its when. Constant expansion/contraction of the silicone, vibration along with 200F oil constantly flowing to bottom of plate will eat away.
This is an easy $75 per plate for you that most anyone will buy until OEM TSBs it with a new part.
