Default not that easy on a 2.8.....
The cats are integral with the downpipes.. Can't just toss in a test pipe and go.. Not to mention, they aren't exactly all that easy to remove.

Oh, please. I've never seen anything on the cat face. It would likely get incenerated anyway.

Default Nothing with silicone, like WD-40. 3-4 oz, then crank w/o plugs. Clean the plug area first.
Kinda busy until tonight. It's not copmplicated. Don't use too much b/c of hydrolock and don't get any dirt into the cyl.
