Question about water pump replacement...

[gunner1]

I need to change the waterpump in my 1984 Force 50hp outboard but I have one question. Do I need to put anything between the lower unit and the top half when I reassemble them? I read the Clymer manual and it makes no mention of anything. Would RTV black be a good choice?
