clean & inspect both surface faces for cracks/digs etc especially where the bolt holes are as sometimes these can fracture due to over-tightening...when installing a new casing gasket i always ues a good quality grease NOT oil on the gasket before fitting..tighten down bots in the usual criss-cross fashion then wipe off excess grease..top up with oil...job done
