Discharge hose question

[crewchief]

I'm installing a new A/C Discharge hose on my 73 Duster. Where the hose mounts to the compressor head requires an O ring and a flange gasket, which I have.
My question is: Does the flange gasket require any sealant or just apply dry along with the oiled O ring?

I don't use any sealant on the gaskets. Ive never seen the fsm call for any. No leaks yet.

Thanks, wasn't sure and didn't want to torque it down and screw it up later.

Checked with Classic Air, they said the paper gasket has to be soaked in the oil before installed.
Hope this helps any one else in the future.
