Leaks in joins of intermediate flex pipe - 97 Aero

I just replaced the intermediate flex pipe in my 97 Aero with a new Starla replacement from Eeuroparts. I noticed that there are small leaks where the pipe bolts onto the rest of the system. Is this normal or should it be completely leak free? I wire wheeled and cleaned the joins in the existing system good...or what I thought was good? DO I need to add some special sealant or is a few small leaks normal?
Thanks
