That one actually says it is not suitable for use with Silicone fluid.

So it does.
It would be nice to know why it is not suitable for silicon brake fluid.
If the plastic pipe is the problem just change the plastic pipe to the pipe listed below and all will be well.

Declan, 8 years later! Is your reservoir kit for the MM still available? Thanks, George (Calva)

It is indeed, and updated over the past few years!
Here is a photo of the kit. It is also available with the metal can as an alternative.
