Default Power Valve Pinion Cavity Probe to Air Leaks?

I am getting ready to install the top end tomorrow. In the photo above you can see the lower power valve shaft in the corner of the case surrounded by a cavity. I have installed new bushings on each of the pinion shafts for the power valve actuation mechanism. I have read that there can be a air leak through the power valve pinion cavity unless the cavity is packed with moly 60. Is this correct?

Here is a photo from another site with the proposed fix.
