Intake manifold gasket

Does anybody know where exactly to apply the silicone gasket material on the intake manifold?

I posted this question on the MBForum and I got the same response...I hear crickets. Hasn't anybody taken apart their intake manifold and put it back together?

Just saw this.

Needswings has the gaskets and recommends the OEM sealant applied very thinly to both sides of the lower intake manifold gaskets. I have the dispensing gun if you need to borrow it. I work in san antonio
