A little late to the party, but I use Aircraft mastic to seal the screw and cable entry holes on my LGB motors.
I've mentioned here before that I have replaced rusted terminal blocks on some motors, by hard wiring them to a short cable that is long enough to connect to a corresponding motor's terminal used in a crossover configuration. I use a single decoder output to change these, and simply lengthen the pulse to maximum, which I find is adequate to change both motors together.
An example would be the junction above. Both the points are changed to either the straight road or the diverging one, as a pair. I added the LGB EPL supplementary switch units Type2 to operate signals. A single point decoder output had enough 'oomph' to drive both motors and the supplementary switch....
