Some have had luck with coating it with red silicone.
However, up pipe leaks are hard to find and rob power.

You can reuse the gasket if it looks like it's in okay shape and you're using an uppipe with a flex joint. If it's corroded or bent or anything, or if you're using a cheap aftermarket uppipe, I would buy a new gasket.
Especially if you're reusing it, I would recommend giving it a few coats of copper gasket spray on each side. That stuff is amazing.
