Quote from the factory manual:
Using a roller, apply Sealing Compound (1 161 059-9) to
upper section of cylinder head. Ensure sealer does not penetrate oil
passages.
I would only use Volvo liquid gasket, but I've never done this job so wait for others' replies. Moderator Tech would be able to give you the best answer.
Sorry couldn't help you better.
P.S: Johnny got here a few seconds faster; good for you!

use the volvo gasket.it cures in the absence of air so make sure youre using the right stuff.its cheap..sand and clean both sides a bit to make sure they mate perfectly and just roll the gasket on with a lint free roller making sure none of the gasket runs into the channels.torque to specificaions in your haynes and your set.
