Water Pump and thermostat Repair

My dad is replacing the water pump and thermostat on his Massey. He called to ask if he should put anything on the gaskets for these 2 parts before reinstalling them.


He knows I don't know, but asked me to get online and ask. He is getting older and says he has Chemo Brain and can't remember anything since he has been taking treatments.


Anyone know if this is optional, required or suggested? And if so what should he use?


I personally doubt he needs anything.

or if I have it, I use Indian Head Gasket Shellac also from Permatex. Do it right because it won't want to come off after the installation.
