Thanks Jon!
The MP instructions want you to use the red when installing the internal
baffles under the PVC and oil breather locations (self tapping screws)! I
suppose you don't want the screws backing out and dropping into the engine!
The blue would probabley work but no point in taking chances, guess I'll
have to pick-up some of the brute strength stuff!

Blue is medium strength, red is high strength. You may need to use
heat and/or special tools to remove components put together with the red,
whereas the blue can be removed with normal hand tools. For valve cover
bolts, Permatex recommends using the blue. See:
