Subject:head gasket progress

Worked a couple hours today and removed the:  looose AC Compressor w/no
charge and missing mounting hardware, AC Compressor bracket, then the
intake to clean/paint it, then the head.  Good, easy stuff. I shouldn't
say it but, I ahve run into no real issues.  :)  Now to the FLAPS to get
carb cleaner, scotch brite, exhaust hardware and a cap and rotor.
Tomorrow assembly.  A couple questions:  Should I use black sealant on the
block, too?  Also, shuld I try to pre oil the pushrods?  And does anyone
have the torque and sequence for the 1.9 WBX?  Thanks!
