I had the same problem on my 400 when I put on an Edlebrock intake. I just used a good thick beed of RTV silicone sealant from Ford, it works great. If you're interested the part # is TA 31. I think it used to be CXC 114. This is the stuff they brought out for the 7.3 diesel. As I said this stuff works amazing and I would never use anything else.
