I'd use anti-seize, high temp.

hey-Hey!!!,
Lok-Tite comes apart( decomposes/breaks down ) at high temperature like a manifold would see. Besides, you want it to come apart w/o trouble next time. High-temp Nickel based stuff would be the first choice, but any is much better than none.
cheers,
Douglas
