Starter drive replacement

[tomxdana]

I need to replace the starter drive on my Merc 125 outboard. It shows using part# 111 on the helix threads. The manual shows using sae10 on the threads. Is this the same thing. There is an index to all the different lubricants and thread lockers but 111 is not one of them. What do you guys use on those threads and how often do you lubricate it. Here is a link to what I'm talking about. The pinion assembly is what I'm replacing. http://www.crowleymarine.com/mercury_parts/3745/50.cfm

Thanks for any help,
