The RTV is to hold the gaskets in place when you reinstall the cover. It's not needed for sealing. Without it you run the risk of the gaskets falling out of the grooves. You then roll/fold the gaskets therefore resulting in a leak. You probably won't need it if you are experienced and being extra careful.
