Where to add RTV sealant to valve covers on 7M engine

I remember reading somewhere on these forums that the valve covers need a little RTV sealant when changing the gaskets. I've searched the site for a while and still don't have a clear picture as to where the RTV should go. If I recall correctly, it's near the #1 cylinder. Does it go on both covers? Which area does it go on?

Here's a pic from my photobucket account, if possible could someone copy it and circle the area to put the RTV, then post it here?

Hope the pic isn't too big!

Thanks!
