Leak Proof Oil Cooler Install

Hello all. I have an '09 Ultra I'm getting ready to install a Harley Davidson oil cooler on. I've read other posts and saw that some have used sealants on the oil filter adapter gasket.
I was wondering if anyone has used the Harley Davidson Hylomar as a sealant on that gasket? -and- I was wondering if anyone has ever tried any type of sealant on the rubber hoses where they slide onto the radiator and/or adapter?
I have found some aviation sealants made for sealing rubber hoses and thought it might help stop any seaping. I wouldn't want to cause the hose to slip off though.
Thanks for any replies guys. h

Use the O-rings the kit give you. Clean everything and use Gasgacinch on the seals. A light coating will seal it up just fine.
