I've used the thin tape or just dope for the threads.

Bulkhead gaskets used a thin layer of silicone but probably not needed, also makes the gasket want to push out. For tightening made a socket as didn't think the grip from my fingers enough.

On the bulkhead do make sure the faces or smooth, can have a ridge from the molding.
