Between the old part of the house and a section that was extended in the 60s, a gap of a few centimeters has developed over time. This was filled by the previous owner 20-30 years ago with some type of compound.

It has shifted a bit since then, and the compound has dried, leaving a gap beside the compound. Therefore, I would like to remove the existing compound and apply new compound.

The question is, what type of compound should be used? It is hardly a regular silicone tube, but rather something more substantial.

I have considered afterwards putting a metal strip to cover the seam, but something is needed to prevent drafts from getting into the wall as well.
 
Bottoming list and outdoor joint.
 
Expanding screws I think are good for these kinds of things, which you then cover with some kind of trim.
 
Thanks! I will check out the options.
