you can get it at the auto parts store, it's intended to go in spark plug boots as a moisture barrier, looks like a clear toothpaste and called Dielectric Silicone Grease

as a lube or gasket?
They have non-hardening silicone at an autoparts store used to make a gasket.
But that's not the same silicone used for spark plugs.
The silicone for spark plugs is a lube/conductor.
