Tempting to say dry especially if taper fit

Hylomar red unless they are not isolated return, in which case dry as your need good continuity with the block.

Blue Hylomar, sparingly.

If you use a liquid thread sealant and nip it in you will get continuity ok. Teflon tape not a good idea. Fit it dry and you risk a leak.
