Default Sealant needed on corprene pan gasket?

Just wondering what is recomended (if anything) on a cork/rubber oil pan gasket. My full time pro mechanic buddy uses permatex non hardening #2 on both sides, but cruising youtube has a different guy using a different treatment in every video. Grease, vaseline, indian head shellac, you name it. I have learned that one does not need to be an automotive engineer to post up a video on youtube. Heck, even I have a channel..... So I feel we have a group of experienced, smart, serious minded guys here. . What do you like and why? Thanks, GB
