I'm probably just going to use the silicone then, unless my gasket kit came with cyl/case gaskets. Before I go and use the wrong kind of silicone, is it ok to use the stuff that came with my KS cylinders? It's a brownish sealant and it seems to stay flexible even after "drying." I'm planning on using that everywhere I'm supposed to put sealant (and none on the cyls to heads, correct?)...
