And I also put a very thin layer on the pan itself. So I have RTV laying down on RTV vs dry metal to RTV.
No leaks.
Thank you, ill give that a try. I actually have some 3M weatherstrip adhesive and its bad ass stuff! Since ill be doing mine in the car, Ill use a short strip of that plumbers strap like someone posted on Faceboook a while back, to hold his cork gaskets in place while it cures, using the 2 pan bolts in that area to keep the shape of the main cap.

Thanks Man!
