Better be very straight -- if warped, it's not going to seal.

The correct sealant is a black RTV, don't remember which one. Small amounts only, the pan and block are machined very flat so you won't need much.

Interesting, I went with RTV because of the discussion surrounding OK Don's replacement. :) So the consensus is Permatex, at least with a mostly straight pan (?).

Thanks,

Permatex form-a-gasket #2. Usually in a small can with a brush on
the lid. One will last a good long time. Use rubbing alcohol to
get it off your hands.

Corredct! I used that black "never hardens" standard old time
gasket sealer.
Wish I could remember the name ---
