Which silicone is used to delid a CPU? 

Are you talking about the adhesive to glue the IHS back on once the paste has been replaced?

For gluing it back on most use an epoxy or RTV sealant from what I've seen, the important thing is ensure the IHS lines back up correctly. :)

Looks like Permatex Ultra Black is the way to go

Yes that will work well, you only need a little to hold it in place so less is more.
