WE c02 mags: Upper seal fix?

Got a few leaking magazines here that run off of c02. They're not seriously bad really but a leak is still a leak. Can I still use silicon to inflate the O ring or should I take a different approach?

Thanks!

(any guides out there would be much appreciated.)

Where's it leaking from?

Also, I'm debating to stick with my propane one or upgrade to co2..
Which has more problems? My propane ones leak like crazy until I lube the shit with silicone oil and retighten and then having to regasket.

Its leaking through the upper valve, its like it doesnt want to return to a full 'closed' position.
Edit: Another seems to be leaking around the valve itself, c02 just spewed back at me, haha.
I wouldn't know to be honest. These are the first C02 mags i've ever used as far as GBBR's go.

I had a WE M14 prior to this and the magazine did get leaky, but it wasn't hard to unscrew either end and replace/slick up the O rings or whatever to fix the leak.

Hitman I'd stick with propane mags. I have both types right now and the Co2 ones ive had way more problems with. I haven't gotten a full mag off with thr Co2 ones yet. My propane mags eventually just sealed themselves after lots and lots of silly oil and re-filling.
