Nextruder heatsink white rubber inside gear chamber chipped - what to do?

Hi,

preparing to MMU3 upgrade to MK4 nextruder, while opening nextruder chamber, I've noticed not only some filament scraps (which were somehow expected) but also crumbles of rubber that protecting  electronics on wall of nextruder heatsink - and blob of it on its side is chipped exposing electronics/connections.

I've expected some issues inside since last print before upgrade failed after few layers because of clogged nozzle - and somehow cold pull and acupuncture needle did not solve issue (well, it solved it for few layers, after which those crumbles of rubber got again into nozzle somehow... i guess..)

Can i somehow repair that?
  - any silicone/glue i can cover/protect the contacts? 
  - or should i order replacement part?

Thanks for suggestions!
