thats up to you ,,when you seal them with the silicone the water wont wheep through the threads and rust the heads and seize..i would keep a eye on them if you dont see anything seeping by the threads then they should be ok..if you do then take them out in the torque sequence and reseal them..

I am not sure where they go - I did test the holes with a wire first and some of the holes go through the head so I used the spray gasket. If it does not work I will pull them one at a time, add RTV, and re-torque. The above comment makes sense - just keep an eye on the bolt heads to see if I see anything weeping.
