My right side chain box is weeping a bit. Started at around 600 miles after the rebuild.

I plan on dropping the engine again in January to address a minor weep from my oil cooler. While it is out, I'd like to fix the chain box gasket.

Is it common to use sealants in conjunction with the paper gaskets? If so, what is best and is it applied to both sides of the paper gasket?
