I've done just what you've done a few times - and it leaked.
I'm with Superman, do it over.
An advantage of an anerobic ("absence of air") sealer like 574 is that it won't harden except where it is squished between the flanges - so I don't think you need to worry about it will plugging your oil passages. On the other hand, sealers like RTV have the potential to make "boogers" that will plug oil squirters and the like.
