Well at least you can see what is causing the issue. If it was not the clips this was the next thing to think of. My mirror set does not appear to have this silicon in it. I don't know why but I had heard it was being used in the scopes. When I stripped mine I could not see any silicon. It might be there but it would certainly affect the performance of the mirror. I would suggest slicing this but as you say get GSO to work out what to do next. I don't know why they have put it in these scopes. The baffle tube holds in the scope and the mirror clips are just there to prevent the mirror coming out if the baffle is not secure.
I am glad you pulled the scope apart. Jim needs to know these issues. Your collimation looks similar to mine.
