Duct tape.

Or the 20-dollar Autozone tube. I planned on getting an OEM tube but the AZ one is still working just fine.

Or cheap aluminum exhaust tape from auto zone, very sticky and can withstand heat.

Hi-temp RTV then wrap with the silver tape. You'll be surprised how long that lasts.
PS - You know you've arrived when your (shortened) screen name ("c-dan") has become a verb

Black RTV has been keeping the snow and wet out of my winter duck boots since October.

While I was on vacation several years back, ours gave up and I ended up wrapping it with Saran Wrap.

I used electrical tape layered three times, then a layer of plastic shipping tape, and then another layer of electrical. Holds well and is somewhat flexible.
