I always use Loctite 518 on all my paper gasket surfaces (with or without paper gaskets). It seals well (when the surfaces are clean) and if you ever have to dissasemble the engine it cleans off very easily (unlike silicone). Loctite claims that one of the reasons that some car manufacturers are offering really long warrantees is because they're using anerobic gasket materials which last much longer than paper gaskets. Its always nice to be able to stop a B engine from leaking...
Loctite also sells 518 under their automotive brand name, Permatex. They call it "Anerobic Gasket Maker." The last time I bought some I ordered a few 50ml tubes (huge) from McMaster, but I've seen the Permatex brand (same stuff different label) at auto parts stores.
