For paper and cork type gaskets I only use grease. It will keep the gaskets soft enough that they will conform to any irregularities in the surfaces so that they seal. Most cork gaskets are old enough when you get them that they will not seal unless they are softened up a bit. This can also be the case with paper gaskets. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE BOLTS!!! That is main reason for failure for these types of gaskets. The gaskets are too hard to seal so you tighten them a bit more. You end up either splitting a cork gasket or distorting the mating surfaces on paper gaskets.
