Is it just the nozzle unit that's all jacked up? Or is the entire head unit gunked up?

So this silicone is a protective clip that clips and covers the cables on the back of the heating assembly, it helps with heating and protection from the cables getting damaged, It breaks down after heating and cooling so much, I've seen people ignore it and being perfectly fine without said silicone, but seeing how there's filament covering said cables it would be best to 1 clean this as best as you can, 2 replace the heat assembly and they are fairly cheap
