Dry not a drop of sealant. I don't think it is really needed unless you worry too much and need that to put your mind at ease. Of all the trucks, cars, Semi'* that I see run these style of clamps I have never seen sealant put on them or them leaking as long as you do it properly.

I wouldn't necessarily use sealant on a downpipe, cutout, or other component (like the crossover) that you would intend to remove or disconnect occasionally. But on any component downstream that you wouldn't normally disconnect, it'* good peace of mind.
Exhaust leaks are annoying. :P

Sounds like its AccuSeal by unanimous decision.
As to sealant, I'll test without, as all the joints in this setup want to be "reversible" in case I need to do a "quick change" back to stock briefly once a year or so...

I wouldn't use it on the crossover for headers, but I would downstream at each component.
