Anti seize, Lots of it, all over the bolt and the holes of the timing cover.nOOB question:
What should I use on the threads of the bolts for water pump and timing cover?
Anti-seize?
Because I found way too many loose bolts I'm going to use Nord-Lock wedge locking washers.
Thoughts?
Yup. If it happens again inside of 2 years, I'm going to conclude my doors are too tight and sloppy the fitCan I safely assume it was an accident?

Did you have a dealership or a private mechanic shop do the work last time?
Tracked a hot no start down to a flattened and stiff oring at the hpop to branch line union on the 6.0. Dummy plugs and standpipes going in tomorrow.
Just had an hpop put in 4 years ago....looks like they didn't reseal a damn thing, just slapped it back together.
Yesterday I rebuilt the heater and got it put in the 67 Bronco. Need to find the switch and controls and get it all hooked up.
Found the rear inline fuel filter leaking from a loose clamp. Tightening that solved the weird problems with dying coming off of choke and coming to a stop after cruising.
I STILL have the stumble under light load at 2200 RPM or so but I had a revelation: it could be the Pertronix Ignitor unit that came with the engine when I bought it. I had to replace the Pertronix Coil that came with the engine which could indicate the condition of the unit itself. Maybe the previous owner of the engine left the key in “on” without the truck running for too long and damaged the unit. Got a new one coming tonight. I hope that solves it because the carb rebuild changed nothing.
Are you on FSB with same username?🤔Funny I have a 59, 430 Bird w/pertronix and the same issue. Again, full carb rebuild and "carb" electric fuel pump by tank, have not fixed it.

Regarding your makeshift worktable;
If I attempted that; I would accidently launch every item on said makeshift worktable into orbit!
I use my HMMWV trailer, that's stationed 6ft away from the workstation, as my worktable.
I'm a bull in a China shop...
Trailer/worktable on the left:
A private "diesel performance" shop.
The same one that left the glow plug controller unplugged after doing injectors.
Also found that the turbo pedestal had 2 bolts just chilling in the valley and the other two were less than finger tight.
Depending on the year; those are the springs I use for my rear suspension.
