Fitting ST170 inlet manifold

Does anyone know if a seperate gasket is required when fitting an ST170 inlet manifold? It has the rubber inset type of seals around each inlet and 'I think' you just mate this straight to the head. Is that correct? Should I use any sealant/instant gasket stuff as well?

Cheers
Chris

Preferably use new sealing rings but otherwise no gasket, just fit & forget.

Thanks guys, I thought that was the case but wanted to be sure. My seals looked to be in pretty good condition but I have turned them around such that there in a new face against the head and think they will be fine.

Thanks again,
Chris
