Ipersonally would use a gasket maker. It will be easier to work with and will allow the new gasket to seal properly. Be very careful not to get any inside of the raised metal portion of the picture. Try to let it almost dry and then put in your new gasket, 12 o'clock to 3 o'clock first. That way if any seeps out, it will be to the outside.

Make sure everything dries before starting up the car. Then have fun. Watch it closely for a few days, then forget about it until your next oil change.

Good luck,

Klaus
