This was in 2016. No leaking even now, seven years later.
Total time: probably close to six-seven hours not counting drying time. I took my time, quick fixes don't last.
Breather covers are dry. I did basically how you described, let the RTV sealant sit for a while before installing the breathers and used new bolts. I guess that is why the breathers are dry.
Lower ones with the factory gasket is the issue.
