Default what to use to seal the bung?

I've installed a oil temps sensor gauge and want to used the bung in my Moroso oil pan to fit the sender unit...

Now I have to scew the sender unit in the adapter and then the adapter in the pan... To avoid spilling, I was wondering if it was better to put hi-temp silicone (red one) or just teflon tape will do? Can teflon tape wistand that much heat?

Teflon tape is used on turbo oil line fittings, it should be fine.
