These is no leakage path and the sealant should not stabilize the saddles.
I have been told it should not be done.

I just saw a post by Trevor Dawe (Peter Dawe's son) on Facebook about this. He says main webs should be clean and dry. William Knight says the same thing. When a case in line bored, is any sealant on the main webs? I don't think so. So why would you put sealant there when assembling an engine? All it can do is mess up clearances.
