[TR] Lock-Tite or Anti-Seize?

I just removed my leaky water pump and, of course, the nuts were frozen
solid but at least the studs backed out easily. I ended up cutting the nuts
off the stud with my Dremel. So what's the best thing to use when
re-installing the new pump? Anti-seize on both ends of the stud or Lock-Tite
on the engine side of the stud and anti-seize on the nut end? I'm leaning
toward anti-seize on both ends as it's always nice to have "options" when
removing a nut from a stud i.e. nut comes off or stud and nut back out
together.

Also.....hylomar on the water pump gasket?

Thanks
