I have been using an outdoor, shielded, flooded, with drain wire cat5e
cable from Arc Wireless/Winncom for all my outdoor work and have had
great luck with it.
Now, it appears this cable is no longer available. I'm looking for a
replacement.
While I'd prefer the same cable, I'd be able to

Why would you expect an answering service to do tech suport?

I agree the oozing gel can be a mess, but it should be nonconductive and
have no adverse effects to an Ethernet port.
Years ago I found an eight port Netgear switch nearly flooded with the oozed
