In the process of replacing the timing cover and all related seals on my 1984 Mercruiser 140. I bought the gasket for the timing chain but did not drop the sump. I've read in many places that cutting the rubber gasket in front of the oil pan where the timing chain meets it works and to use The Right Stuff RVT to form the new gasket.

My question is which RVT to use? There are so many choices. I want to be sure I use the right one.

Thanks in advance!
Rod.

Thanks! I was leaning towards the black stuff. I'll look at the high heat Red.

Thanks for the suggestions! I went ahead with the black stuff. It was super easy to work with. Now I just need to wait until end of April to be able to pull the boat out of the garage and see if she runs/leaks!

I prefer the Ultra copper over ultra black, however ultra black works. Ultra copper works well around oil
