Question Which Permatex To Use ?

Hey guys i am putting on my EGR block off plates, and the plate that goes on the header as we all know only has one bolt. The kit said to use a permatex to help seal it, i got the copper one cause it had the highest temp on it. Is the cooper tube the best stuff to use or is there something better
thank in advance

I'm pretty sure the Permatex Copper is called Ultra Copper. That's may be what you have.
