You don't need any sealant for the intake manifold.

If you are worried about leaks, clean the mounting surfaces and replace the 2 intake manifold gaskets and torque down the bolts correctly.

^ Quoted for truth. The gaskets are cheap.

Hard not to use "incredibly stupid" along with "wrxii" and "your next post will be, "what is this knocking sound'"" in the same post without sounding like an asshole........So this is the best I could do.
