Common sense tells me that applying passive grease to a part is not a modification, but I can respect the opinion of others whose common sense tells them otherwise. However, I can also get all laywer-y and decide to apply the thermal grease instead to the spot on the robot where I'm going to mount the speed controller, and I don't see anything in recent rules that would make doing it a problem.
Actually, I'd probably avoid the messiness of grease and use a flexible thermally conductive pad.
