What happened?

When I bought injectors from Racetronix, came with a small packet of silicon grease to lube the orings ... what is the risk in that?

Certain silicone residues can kill the O2 sensor (especially some sealants with the 'vinegary' smell) , bit it seems a stretch that oring grease would migrate to the O2 sensor (but i could be wrong!).
