Default FAST 92 reassembly issue

So my motor blew a year or so ago and im just getting around to putting it back together. The intake was full of oil and metal. Bought a new seal kit from FAST and tore it apart. Im assuming the gap in the pics will disappear when the intake is torqued on the car? I just want to double check before I put it on the car. Thanks.

All of the seals being new, I'm sure is the reason. It will likely create a true seal as you torque it and crush them into place.

is there a gasket between the upper and lower hat ? i know there
is for the runners, of course, but wasn't sure on the hat seal.

I used rtv where the runners meet the lower piece. But i used the actual FAST gasket to run the perimeter and over the top of the runners.

Had a question since you already did this yourself I recently bought a 92mm and when I opened it up it had no gaskets anywhere so I purchased he rope gasket for the top and bottom shell. My question is the runners that are screwed in to the bottom shell also use the rope gasket? Or is it just screwed on?
