I've Permatexed the new cork gasket to the valve cover which is off the engine while it sets up.When I install it on the head do I need to put a thin bead of sealant on the head side of the gasket or leave that dry and just rely on the compression of the two cover bolts to make the seal?

I like to use Hylomar on the side towards the head. Helps stop the leaks, but won't harden and tear the gasket on removal. I went for years just putting on a fresh layer when I reinstalled the cover; didn't remove the cork until I switched to Justin's silicone gasket.
