So got a new ACDelco Professional water pump and there are two holes I need to cap off, I have the brass plugs but what is the best/proper way to seal them from leaking?

A ton of Teflon tape?
Pipe dope?

Thanks - I don't want leaks!

<searched for the answer, guess I am stupid and the only that doesn't know>
