when reassembling the t90 transmission, should the paper gaskets be left dry, or should any additional sealent be added to them?

The industry standard is if the manual does not call for sealing or bonding a gasket then you don't. When paper gaskets are used it is because the joint is close tolerance and/or a tight fit is desired. Adding bulky adhesives defeats the intention of using paper.
