On a 2009 Model is the rear end cover differential gasket reusable? Does it even have a gasket or is it just sealant?

If it does, they usually tear when you take off the diff cover. Ive opened up and sealed about 30 rearends/front axles maybe more. We usually toss the gasket and use silicone. Red or black. Have one buddy who loves blue. I'm partial to red because its easier to see a leak develope on the seal. Not that i ever develope one, and thats banging and dragging pumpkins over rocks. I have reused a gasket with success, but that was after i blew out a shaft in hot springs at the offroad park and didnt feel like fooling with gasketmaker on the side of a hill.
