I fully agree, if your using the proper torque spec, you are safe only if you use no gasket, or the proper copper with the bolt hole seals. Why risk it?

As to torque wrenches, I'm 73, and been using my same old beam/pointer wrench since I got it in high school. I've never given its accuracy a second thought.
