Should I have put RTV around the crossover holes as well as the gaskets?
Thank you.

I've always put a light coating of Right stuff on each side of the gaskets at the water crossover. I also put a small amount on the rubber donut at the bypass. I've never had any leaks.
I've also put a small flat washer on the valley pan bolt and a small amount of sealer under the washer. Prevents oil migration on top of valley pan.
