Golf oil pressure woes (MK2 8V GTi)

You wonder if the silicone was because someone was too tight to put on a
new
gasket, or a belt and braces attempt to make sure it didn't leak. There
should
be no need for extra sealant there anyway, if the surfaces are suitably
clean
for the new gasket.
Lucky you didn't block an oilway with it - hope it still won't.
Pump pickup - the gauze bit, or the pipe itself?
Gauze. I stripped the pump and it was perfect. Backlash as per Mr Haynes.
