Does anyone know if any sealant is needed on the thin metal intake manifold gasket used on the 2.4 accords? Any help will be appreciated.

If it's a silicone beaded gasket, do not use sealer. Or if it's a crush-type metal gasket. Otherwise, probably yes.

Most gasket makers have good tech lines you can call and ask if you have doubts....

No, just the gasket.
