The shop manual tells you to use anaerobic sealant for the timing chain cover. For the sump pam it says to use blue Permatex. If the bottom of the block, the bottom of the timing cover, and the sump pan contact surface are all clean and flat as they should before bolting up you should not have a leak.
The only precaution I'd give is to use a small bead. 1/16" to 3/23" is sufficient. Too thick a bead it will ooze out and potentially drop into the pan. Although the oil pickup screen will prevent the strands from bing sucked into the oil passage they will not come out when you drain oil either.
I used orange Permatex shown in the picture.
