I am half way through stripping the inlet manifold off my 12V. But obviously I decided to look through the PDF a kind chap linked to me on hear.
On the refitting I need new gaskets and some sealent.
I think two diffrent typres. Anybody got any good ideas what I can easily get from an motor spear's shop that will do the job.

Good old silicone works a treat, but just put a light smear around the waterways front and back and a heavier bead across the valley to seal oil in the tappet chest (across each end of the block).
Also, don't buy that horrible orange gunk, get a tube of black, looks much nicer !!
