We were always taught no sealer on a transmission pan gasket. You don't want any excess getting in the transmission. Also, Type F has different friction modifiers in it. It will shift harsher and cause accelerated wear in the transmission. Use what it calls for, which is Dexron, or these days Dex II, III or the newer synthetic Dex VI.
That's why I like CopperCoat. Just a thin layer won't squeeze out and clog something, plus it doesn't take all day to get the residue off. It's a rubber cement so once it gets tacky, it will hold a gasket in place easily.....even the bent ones.
