No, I searched for screws and refined for Llama. Yours went to all Llama products. If you click on the exploded diagrams they take you to the small parts. If you just click on the model number they send you to a short list that seems to only be grips and magazines.

Which: the goop, the dirt, or both?
Have been there and done that. The usual recommendation for SS bolts and an Aluminum fixture is an insulation paste of some sort. I've used a multitude of different things - I've even used 3M 5200 :-) but the main purpose is to prevent corrosion as aluminum and stainless are far apart on an Anodic Index Chart. 18% chromium stainless is about 0.5 while aluminum is about 0.95. Zinc, by the way is about 1.2. The highest and lowest I see on my chart is gold at 0.0 and beryllium at
1.85.
The home-made hardware on my antennas is made from aluminum, brass and stainless, for example aluminum side plates and pulley sheave on a brass pivot shaft with a stainless screw through the center, greased with LubriMatic marine wheel bearing grease #11400.
They show essentially no corrosion and little wear in over a decade of exposure to rain water and a little wood smoke. I spray LPS-3 on the outside when the antenna is down for repairs, perhaps once a year, but it dries too thick for pulley bearings.
Metal close to the ground and exposed to oak leaf acids isn't so fortunate.

Paul, I contacted that ebay seller to ask if he knew the thread. He responded with "What kind of gun is it for?". I told him and he said he has no grip screws for those.
