Intake manifold gaskets
There are the two logical gaskets that go between the block and the intake manifold, (Similar to the exhaust manifold), however, the FSM doesn't show anything for the area around the outside edge of the intake manifold. Does it just sit there, or do we just put some RTV around the outside edge?

A lot of folks swear by The Right Stuff for the china walls - I had my engine guy use it when he put mine back together. I believe the bead should be run right up to the edge of the gasket.
I overlap mine just a bit.
