thanks for that, mine came with paper type gasket and a rubber bit for the side and rubber ring for the thermostat, just thought i would get some opinions as i dont want to fit it and have it leak thats why i thought of just using sealer and not the gasket as my sealer is a good make a not a cheap one and sayes it can be used on all parts including water parts

Any more opinions on this? The manual says just the gasket with a two stage tightening procedure. But seeing as I'm about to have to do this and it looks like half a day's work just to fix a tiny leak on the back of the pump, I don't want there to be any possibility that it will leak once everything's back together again. How about gasket AND sealant?
