What is the proper sealant to use during installation of the crankshaft seal for a TSIO-360CB?

My overhaul manual is not helpful. A Continental Service Bulletin is only marginally more helpful, stating only "Apply a thin coat of Permatex to the O.D. of the seal." Great, but Permatex has a bunch of products.

I did a search here for 'proper sealant to use on crankshaft seal' and got:

'The search term you specified (for) is under the minimum word length (4) and therefore will not be found.'

I admit, it's been a while since I learned how to count, but I'm pretty sure that's more than four words. I get that reply a lot.

A search of the Web shows people using Titeseal and Dow 717. Some people say use a non-hardening sealant some say use a hardening sealant. I just want to use the proper sealant and not experiment.
