Rear Differential Question

Ok, gonna change out the rear diff oil on the Expy, I know what oil to use, I know I have to get the modifier, but......

What RTV do I use to make a good seal that the rear oil will not eat through?

BTW, you only need the modifier if it is a LS diff. But you probably know that.
