...and speaking of oil pan gaskets and windage trays... should one use gasket paste when installing the windage tray??

If so, what type of  paste?  Or is the integrated rubber gasket designed 
to be used without paste??  I have a new windage tray yet to be 
installed, and I want to do this right - no ruinee gasket, no leakie 
oilie pan.
