You certainly can't use a lube glob that gets pushed out when you slide the assembly in place- it will only end up on the plate as you note. But some judicious use of moly paste carefully applied won't hurt. You're right about the RepROM saying nothing about it but then it says virtually nothing anyway- what it does say can be condensed to "no need to look for balance position, use the alignment tool when you put it back" as almost of the rest is even less informative boilerplate text.
Our local club hasn't seen issues that indicate alignment issues of any significant type with hexheads/camheads. Those that have had seal problems of any type have generally had them cured by simple replacements and not needed repeats.
Anyway, glad its working well. If someone else reports this same issue your thread will be of help to them.
