Excellent! Thanks for the pics Joe!

One thing to note is that if the gasket has a viton coating for that passage you need to be very careful about any sealants you might want to use on them... most contain enough trace solvents to cause the viton to bubble or ripple and may actually cause a worse leak than allowing the viton to do its job. If there is no sealant present, then YES, a thin coat of RTV is the way to go. I've had both types of gaskets in the past and neither leaked... never tried one with no sealant.
