Use it on all gaskets and if the overdrive is apart at the brake ring do BOTH sides of the ring, but without a gasket...be careful not to get any inside the OD unit. Ignore passage in workshop manual telling you not to use sealant on ring...if you don't, it will leak.  These are 60 year old parts and they are tired.

> Related to the gaskets I normally use permatex Aviation 3h on both sides - do you think that will work - it’s the first time I’m doing a BN1 gearbox 😀

>> Actually there are 5 long bolts, setscrews (2K3109) that secure the control (9) to the side cover ((7) and one stud on the left-middle for a nut/spring washer... there is one short one (2K3097) on right-middle... the parts book is incorrect listing the long for the short. Three setscrews  (2K3094) on the left, then additionally hold the cover to the box.  See diagram. Remember the two gaskets and use sealant each side or they will leak.
