you should use permatex brand "right stuff", it's way better than plain rtv. it's a pain in the ass when you need to get the pan off again but i haven't had a pan leak since i started using it, even a customer who was missing half the bolts and wouldn't buy new ones. it dries in 15 minutes instead of hours so by the time you get the pan cinched down you can fill it up. some people may not like it but that's my advice.
