buying and fitting an oil cooler

ok , i hvae a superstomp 140,

i purchased a oil cooler and fitting place from wpb, ive fitted it to the side of the block using black engine sealant, aswell as oil lines with the copper washers etc.. i only left the bike a few minuites and when i started it , it sprung a leak, last night i wiped all the sealant off and did it again, this time leaving the sealant to cure, tonight i will try it , but really my question is , should it be ok to use a sealant on these engines or should i really be trying to find a cardboard gasket.

I work primarilly on high powered turbo cars and sealant is the standard approach for these kind of things, however im new to bikes.
