Question have you ever had a problem if oil goes through the rubber seals for spark plugs

Wait a bit for rtv to tack up before the cover goes on.

I use a air compressor but if you don't have one use a can of brake kleen and a paper towel

I was wondering this. I read the silicone isn’t needed. This true? Just smack the gasket on and good to go?

It depends on the condition of the metal. Mechanics use RTV just to be safe.

@@joemcshmoe10 If both surfaces are smooth all the way around, you don't need anything. If there are cuts/dents/scratches, then you will have to use it to fill them in. If this is the first time ever opening it and you are careful not to damage surfaces, you shouldn't need anything except the gasket.
