When I went to refill the cooling system there were no leaks from the WP but it was leaking a lot from the timing cover. So...if I cleans and dry the site of the leak and gob on some silicone would that be advisable? And what about the old standby Bars Leak?

Do you think it was leaking from the front cover before?
If leaking, the only repair is re-sealing the timing cover. Ain't no dabbing going to do it. Stay away from stop-leaks unless you are desperate (they also plug-up radiators and heater cores).
You're putting on a timing set, correct?
Fill the system and leave the radiator cap loose. See how badly she leaks without system pressure on it if you need to use it temporarily, Carry coolant with you.
