I've never used anti-sieze on mine; neither does the factory or dealer. Mine have been replaced once. CUrrent set has almost 200k on them.
After the horrible experience I had breaking off a glow plug, I lather my plugs now with anti-seize just for peace of mind. However, I'm not so sure that the anti-seize is really needed. I think removing the glow plugs with the engine hot is the ticket. However, it's unlikely that I'll stop using the anti-seize.
