J4 covers have a beading in them from the factory, this is the seal most people bugger these and use sealent.

JP4 have a rubber seal, although mine shat oil everywhere so need to sort a new seal lol

no need, just aslong as you didnt muller the beading.

I had my J4s removed for my JP4s, stored them for a week protected then refitted the J4s and no leaking
