On the flat fitting that goes between the oil drain hose and the oil pan, the stock setup uses a gasket. Should I use that gasket or maybe a sealant? thanks

I used the stock gasket with a thin coat of High Temp Silicone RTV and so far no leaks.

High Temp RTV without the gasket will work just fine.

I ditched the 1997 gasket and wen with this stuff. My buddy swears by it and used it on his supra oil pan. I have the toyota stuff on my pan and it leaks just a bit. This tuff was 10bucks but also has a presurized can, making for a great bead.
