the best stuff to put on the threads is "permatex" I think it goes by another name. It comes in a white small container with a siliver cover. It's brown and sticks to everything LOL. You can also just put the engine plug back in dry. IT"S tapered pipe thread that seals like a pipe. RTV is ok but kind of thick.

if it's that indian head gasket shellac, it's in a brown container, & the cap is also part of the goop handle/applicator. Stuff also makes a good radiator repair
