Silicone.... Should you buy new gaskets instead of just using the RTV?

Or use both?

Technically you should buy new gaskets AND use RTV or liquid gasket to seal it up; even the FSM says to use liquid gasket with the rubber pieces. Depending on the age of the engine you might want to consider a new valve cover/front cover gasket also. It's dependent by the condition of the rubber gaskets in the first place.
