Permatex Ultra Grey
Permatex Ultra Grey is what my Indie recommended to use on the upper pan.
I just removed and replaced my upper pan, this is what was on it from metric Motors. also they used a thin coat of it on the lower pan along with the gasket. Don`t get carried away with the stuff. I think the directions said to use a 1/8 IN. bead of it. Charlie

Any form-a-gasket should work, they work basically the same some are for different environments though. IMO I like Permatex Ultra Blue/Black works well and relatively inexpensive.

sealant
The FSM (Or the EPC)will have a part number
(It'll be a Loctite/Permatex product) The Yamaha tri-bond sounds interesting...

I ended up using Permatex Anerobic sealant along with the primer that it calls for when I put my m117 back together, so far no leaks.
That's only been 5k miles ago, though.

I used #2 Permatex on mine, which I've used for years on all my engines. I know it's old school, but works.
