I've located a very annoying squeak coming from my heat shield, probably an old bushing. I have tried tightening bolts to no effect. I was thinking about spraying some lubricant around the squeaky bolt/bushing but am worried about its combustibility given the temp and proximity to to the exhaust. Any suggestions?
 
Will dry out

Try rtv silicone to stabilize
