Caulk for vent on side

This past weekend while installing a new water pump, I had to remove the vent on the side of my camper for my fridge. Now, I'm looking to recaulk/tape this back on. A lot of people say to not use silicone. Some say to stick with Geocel Proflex RV.

I'm in a pinch as I'm heading out this weekend, don't have any RV stores close to me, and am looking for something I can order with Amazon Prime or pickup at Lowes/HD/ or a hardware store.

Some that I've researched and I should be able to get before the weekend are Nuflex 311 or Sikaflex 221. Will these do? Does anyone have anything else I could use? Remember, this is a vertical application, so I'm looking for NON-self leveling.

OSI Quad seal at HD, LOWES or MENARDS. That's what the factory service center uses.

Thank you for that information. My fridge is LP, and sometimes I run on gas. Will it be ok with this stuff close by?

I guess another question, is I pulled some of the spray foam off around my fridge to run my wires and water line. What is the safe spray foam to use in that area where I will be using a lighter to light my fridge?
