Default Rear Cover Leak

After replacing my clutch I have started it twice and have noticed a very small amount of oil seeping between the oil pan and belhousing. I replaced the rear main seal, and rear cover gasket but.. I did not use any rtv anywhere. I lined up the cover with the plastic tool that the RMS comes with and tightened middle bolts out ending with the long oil pan bolts. Oil pan was never removed and plug behind pilot bearing looked fine. Did I install this right?

I myself put RTV on the bottom face of the rear cover, just like you would the front.
