I've never applied any sealant between starter and clutch housing but then I'm not a professional mechanic.

Googling that sealant PN, I got hits for using that stuff on various VW parts Seems it might be an anaerobic type of sealant?

On the Syncro, sealing the starter to clutch housing is more crucial due to possible water ingress? (rivers what not)
