I think Jim means RTV instead of RPV.
"Room Temperature Vulcanizing" AKA High Temperature Silicone Sealant

Unless RPV is something new that I have not heard about.

What Frank said...   As to the cork, it is not really a seal. Simply a
gasket. Match them up as closely as possible to the pan gasket and RPV the
whole thing on reassembly. The "eyebrow" should match the rear main bearing
cap tightly or, as Frank said, you will have leaks.

Cheers!!!
