That's what's recommended, leak or not. Throw away the rubber end gaskets and lay down a 1/4" bead of silicon. Carefully set the intake so that it drops straight down. Then inspect to be sure the gaps are filled and bolt the intake in place. Remove the excess in the distributor hole before it cures, the rest can be smoothed with your finger, or wait and trim after it's cured.
