which sealant to use

rebuilding top end I`ve 2 gaskets either side of packing plate under barrel
and then head to barrel but not using a gasket there just metal to metal ,
plus does anybody use sealant around the exhaust copper gasket as it always
seems to leak slightly.

Re: piston rings

Thanks Adam,I would do but its that long since I did a photo I can`t remember how to do it (bloody computers) will check the rings tomorrow and how they sit in relation to the groves in the piston and will try to sort out a photo.

piston rings

is there a certain way for piston rings to be fitted,my pin came out of the piston I"ve replaced it with another piston that I have in my spares bucket which has the pin in the middle of the groove for the rings but I don"t see any marks on the ring too say which way up or does it matter. ...
