Back at home I attacked the mating surfaces with various solvents, none of which did much of anything to loosen up that sealant. Rubbing alcohol and acetone were the two I reached for the most, but in the end I think it was good old fashion elbow grease and extremely careful usage of a razor blade as a scraper that got the job done. I resealed with Loctite 574.
