I use grease on my intake gaskets, especially for carbs. You can take the intake on and off several times without damaging the gasket.
I rub the grease in and wipe off all excess. I use Swepco grease.
I've done this for over 25 years, never an issue or leak. Of course this is for paper intake gaskets only.
I also true up the manifolds, flat surface like glass with sandpaper, 180 grit is the finest you have to go.
I wouldn't use anti-seize.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.
