Can anyone tell me if RTV goes on gasket 1, 2, or 3? Also the number 3 gasket is for the oil pick tube but what are the o-rings for in the bag. I think the smaller one is for dip stick. The other 2 I have not seen anywhere on the engine.

The paper gaskets do not need RTV, just make sure the metal surfaces are perfectly clean. The small o-ring does look like for the Oil dipstick, the large one maybe for the mass air flow sensor, the other ones I don't know about, someone else may.

Thanks for the response! I have replace most all of my other gaskets. the project is starting to come back together.

On the rear engine cover gasket. I always use a light amount of RTV on both sides of the bottom 1.5". That is a common leak area. Also I'd suggest a little loctite on it's bolts. They like to loosen.
Everything else.. no RTV.
The smallest o-ring is for the dipstick tube seal.
Large o-ring, I forget, however IIRC it's too big to be a coolant o-ring
The flat ring is for the oil pan drain plug on the aluminum pan motor.
