Default Cam Housing Gasket Sealer?

I am replacing the cam housing gasket between the head and the housing on my 944 turbo. Any suggestions on using any sealer on this gasket?

It doesn't require any sealant, but I've always used a real thin coat of Ultra Grey RTV. I've done about 10 of them this way in the past 6 years and I've never had one leak.

I've done two without sealant and no leaks. Adding a small amount would just be additional insurance.
