RS,
I've always used Permatex (non-hardening) Form-a-gasket #2 on bolt threads that require sealing. Anything that hardens, like Loctite 518, is just gonna make it harder to remove those bolts in the future and when bolts really need to be locked the best choice is red (high strength) or blue (medium strength) Loctite thread locker. The best use for 518 is to seal mating flanges like the timing cover to block.
