So ,you do not use any pan rail gaskets? Only RTV on both sides of the windage/scraper tray?
I have not looked @ the instructions yet, sorry.
Definitely only use RTV between the scraper and block. The clearances need to be stable. You should use RTV between the pan and scraper as well.
Trim the end seals as closely as possible to butt up against the scraper and spacer ends and then use RTV to fill the gaps. There is a pictorial on our website homepage of an installation on an AMC 360 that illustrates the procedure. The AMC scraper shown there (old design now) is made from 12 gauge -- they (and yours) are now made from thinner but stronger steel so sealing at the end seals is not a big issue.
Yes, Larry is correct that you can simply unbolt the windage tray assembly from the scraper and spacer.
