Thanks for the comments.

Did the studs come out easily?
I looked quickly and saw some crazy price for studs $14-15 and will re-use if
possible, they aren't cylinder head bolts.

Where did you see directions to use silicone grease on the gaskets?

No response from e-mails to Elring or Professional Parts Sweden tech support
about sealant applications for the three gaskets.

The Pro Parts Sweden Pump gasket kit 26430667 has 5 copper washers and the three gaskets.
Hepu P053 supplies the pump, three gaskets, two hex washers, and three hex bolts.

I hope to stall this job until spring when can take my time flushing out the old coolant, and not be worried about frostbite, NOAA predicts -7F tomorrow night
in my DIY Garage, AKA driveway.

Two more questions:
1. What do you think of the Gates coolant accessory that uses compressed air to flush the coolant? No toxic chemicals, but maybe blow out your radiator core?

2. Where do I safely dispose of old coolant?

Thanks, Bill
