I'm a stickler for following the service manual instructions, but I'm kind of scratching my head at this bit about using copper paste to mount the silencer clamp.

Is the copper paste for the screw itself? I've never heard of it. Or is the paste for the clamp itself somehow? Any tips appreciated!

The copper paste is so the clamp doesn’t seize to the pipe.

Great, thanks!

Anti seize, anti corrosion paste. Used for hi-temp components. Here, it is prescribed for the M6 screw (presilencer). Shouldn't have a big problem doing without it.
