Just to update. I got this installed and had a massive leak. The instructions say "use no sealants" but you still need the two spots on the rear main seal housing. It's dry everywhere else. I would retorque after a couple heat cycles as well.

Was the leak at the outside of the gasket there, or around the nuts/studs?

Right where the side seam of the rear main seal housing meets the pan gasket. Where i have put a dab of silicone my entire life 😂. It's still required.
