Q1: Do we use pipe dope on the pump threads? (What kind?)

I'd use teflon tape on the threads. That's what I always use,
but I think pipe dope is OK too.

I have teflon tape, and these two pipe "dopes":

- The tube says "slow setting"
- The can says "slow dry" & "soft set"

Other than the teflon tape, is there such a thing as
"non setting" pipe dope?

Regular pipe dope, the grey stuff, is what I would call non-setting.
It dries out over time, but it doesn't harden and stick like
the hardening versions of say Permatex.

I would just use teflon tape
