The consensus seems to be no on this list, but I used
it everywhere possible on my 1275 rebuild, and I have
absolutely no engine/tranny leaks, weeps, runs drips,
etc., after 2 years, even after flogging the crap out
of the car for 45 minutes at Blackhawk a few weeks
ago. And I do use it on the valve cover between the
cover and the gasket. It keeps the gasket/cover
together nicely after valve adjustments, etc.
