I do not use any RTV, but I also checked the mating surfaces to make sure they were flat before I opted out of using RTV, if I had a slight worble that couldn't be filed down, then I would use RTV.

Good job, I never use any sealant. Clean the gasket

Looking at the FSM it only shows like 15ft/lbs on the bolts.

Yes that is the torque specification. That is what I use.
