I've been covering my mount for a while now while imaging and the short answer is yes. There are definite benefits doing that. Not that much the grease because they're designed for wider range of temperature your mount will be subjected to but in terms of meshing, binding and especially dew and water contamination with bearings and other bits, electronics, etc... it makes a big difference.
