Could that goo be some type of coolant, similar to what PCBs were used for in power-line transformers? (I sure hope the RCA stuff is itself not a variant of PCBs.) If it is for cooling, the minor loss seen in the pictures (and described by others here) should not affect occasional short-term use by a collector, in my opinion.
