None that's what the gasket is for jim Brock taught me a cool trick to use on the underside to help line up the gasket and it worked pretty good

I put a light skim of mega black on just the inner/intake side... worked perfect and no leaks.

I use anti-seize....
Just enough to hold the gasket in place.

It's a tiny bit of grease on the suction housing side. That way if you have to pull the pump you can wipe it clean and re use the gasket ;). It works killer and since most peeps don't use a lock washer on there suction housing bolts it seals nicely
