Buy some cheap 2-1/2" 6mm bolts (5-6) and hack saw the heads off, thread these in intermittently around the case mating holes and you can have your gasket hanging correctly with no issues and they serve as a guide for sliding your outer case on straight and even. I lightly coat the gasket both sides with non-metallic anti seize and the gasket will have a high probability of re-use, if or when you need to split the case again. No adhesive needed, the dummy studs hang it in place. One more thing, locate and secure the wavy washer (on the starter) first thing after case separation and do not forget to re-install. I have done three spring changes, 3 bikes and have not needed a special tool, just keep on checking for looseness on the center pin as you wind the clutch bolts back in. Final torque after they snug up. Inspect your plates while you have the clutch apart, you can see worn or not, also survey the plates with a mic. if your so inclined. 3 bikes no issues, no leaks.
