I’ve done several of those but I don’t know about any requirement for sealant. I was careful to polish the crankshaft to remove oil residue and used silicone grease on the seal with no leakage problems. As was mentioned, be certain to change the oil pump o-ring. I had one split causing a big oil leak and the others I have replaced have been hard as a rock and destined to split. It’s not hard if you get a large c-clip pliers. I got mine online but I’ve also seen one at Harbor Freight that I think will do the job. Some have mentioned removing the c-clip without large pliers but I wouldn’t want to make the job harder.
