Curil-T is available from Pelican (PEL-246948). Curil-T and "Yamabond" (ThreeBond 1104) are both non-hardening. I suppose that lets things move around a little and reseal.
I used to use Loctite 518 (available at your local NAPA) on the cam thrust plate gasket but the last couple of motors I've been using that copper "high tack" spray the John Walker has mentioned. The high tack stuff is convenient because it will hold the gasket in place during assembly. If you use the 518, you should rub it into the gasket before you put the gasket on.
You don't really need anything on the chainbox to case gasket.
Absolutely, positively avoid RTV any place that is exposed to the internals of the motor. All it takes is for one RTV "booger" to break off and get caught in one of the many pin holes that oil goes through to ruin a motor.
