Oil Pan Install

All,
I'm getting ready to install my oil pan that I've working on. It's a 7.3 for an OBS F250. My question is what do you guys recommend? Just I buy a gasket or use some gasket maker?

Thanks in advance!!

If it was a differential or tranny, I’d say Lube Locker, but I do not think they make oil pan gaskets.

You use the special grey stuff from Ford or IH...I seem to recall it's made by Wacker.
