(the middle 2 layers of a 4 layer metal gasket), knowing that the same will reoccur in the future I'm looking at alternatives. I've read that copper RTV is a commonly enough used solution. 1) Is this true? 2) Is it a viable alternative (will it hold)? 3) How much is applied to seal the mating surfaces? Thanks! Steve
