I usually use the grey water pump and thermostat sealer from Permatex. Just smear some (lightly) on the gasket that mates to the block.

It uses 2 gaskets, the one between pump and plate will come off, its a little tricky to fish it around. I personally used only sealer between block and gasket (block had some pitting)
