Oil will get into the wood and keep it from shrinking anyway.

If you really feel the need to glue the gasket into place, Permatex High 
Tack does that and is easy to clean off next time, as well as easy to clean 
off any squeeze-out.  Aviation Permatex will "glue" it on too, though it 
dries more slowly.  If you just want to add a sealer to the gasket, Hylomar 
will be fine.
