      Default Thread Sealant for Plenum Bolts?

      Finished valve cover gasket change and installing plenum back on. Do any of the plenum bolts need thread sealant applied? I had thought I read or heard that somewhere but can’t find anything stating it is necessary. Looked in the 86 shop manual (Manual D pg 24-04-8 step4) and there isn’t a step stating sealant is necessary to install plenum bolts.
