Sealant w/ intake manifold gasket?

Is any sealant required when replacing the intake manifold gasket?

No there is not, I'm sure it would not hurt if you used one
The lower manifold gasket is metal type and I used a copper spray on the gasket
the upper one is part metal with a rubber ring built in to it.

i hope this isnt to late but DONT USE ANYTHING. It will not leak i took mine off 100 times and i am not exaggerating. Sometime sealants cause the smallest of pockets which can actually in this case cause a leak.
