NOOOOO. Marine grease is like regular grease except its made to be around water. Not sure the difference. Dielectric grease isnt really even grease I dont think. USE ONLY DIELECTRIC GREASE!!!

marine grease is water resistant very much but will conduct elec.

dielectric is also water resistant but doesn't conduct elec. so it keeps out water and stops it from shorting out when water touches the grease.

niether stop water and for you air box some silicon gasket maker would work much better and less messy.
