020 Transmission Plugs

This is maybe a stupid question but I would rather ask than mess something up.

So do the 020 transmission plugs need any lubricant / sealer etc or are they just a tighten up metal on metal seal? And if that is the case I don't want to over tighten them. Is there a torque spec and do they need any sealer or lube before tightening them up?

No sealer or anything needed for the filler and drain plug, just screw them in and tighten up.
