The torque values in the manuals give a RANGE of torque ,for example 45-55 ft lbs. I believe that covers any varience due to the use of anti sieze,or sealant on the threads, IF the torque wasn’t at the top end of the range ,let’s say 53 ft lbs in my example. I don’t think any substance used on the threads would alter the torque too much.
