PST is also a great anti-seize product, just because of that -- highly 
recommended for all stainless steel fasteners and any bolts into 
aluminum threads, but if one doesn't like the white goop, the plain old 
low-strength blue thread goop likewise is a fine thread sealant and fair 
anti-seize product, and would work well on those flywheel bolts, if you 
aren't overly worried about effecting use of your your nano-newton 
torque wrench.

Speaking of which, you can almost always tell if your metallic 
anti-seize product contains lead or not by the size of the container -- 
a four ounce size of the current products would weigh about a pound if 
it was the lead stuff, which is truly not a friend of mankind -- Google 
for Picher, OK.
